Need to focus on basic infrastructure

People across Goa are so very rightly up in arms against projects that are against the interests of the State and detrimental to the environment. Every decision taken by the government should be after an in-depth analysis and proper application of mind.

On issues that concern the society, the government should bow to the wishes and aspirations of the people by taking sensible corrective decisions instead of forcing the public to agitate on the streets. 

While an already saturated Goa does not need any more such controversial projects, it should be the thrust of the government to first ensure as a top priority that Goa’s basic infrastructure is first put in place. All these fancy projects that the Government is imposing are not in the best interests of the people.

The government should instead on a priority deal with the serious issues plaguing the state. Very urgent action is warranted on potholed roads, drainage and sewage, effective garbage management, stray animal menace, enhanced healthcare services, better infrastructure and proper traffic management. 

May better sense prevail on those in power.
