The Dando Benaulim ground is the venue for various inter-village football tournaments, political rallies, and other sports events. But after every event, there are mounds of plastic garbage all over ” even the stage is not spared. Mr Churchill Alemao, the ex-CM and football enthusiast, presides over most of the match finals, and members of the panchayat also mark their presence. There is no maintenance worth the name; even such a basic thing as regular mowing of the grass is not carried out. May I request the authorities to at least keep the ground clean, if nothing else?
