Mundkar oriented 'scheme' needed for permanent relief

Goa has the Mundkar Law of 1974 . Many people may have bought their lands under this Act. But there are still many cases lying in the government offices. There are many reasons for these lingering cases. What is needed now is a mundkar policy. A mundkar lives in a house, doesn't he?  For this, it is essential to implement the "Mundkar scheme".  Now who is mundkar? One who lives in a house, pays house tax, electricity bill, water bill, has a ration card and voting card ... and the number of years he has been  living in the house.  If all these things are taken into account, then the person could be a mundkar.

Therefore, the Goa government should take the cognizance  of the woes of the mundkars of Goa and give them permanent relief.
