Resolve shortage of eggs and milk in the State of Goa

Congratulations on the launch of your new website.

I have a suggestion to make to Chief Minister Pramod Sawant. My plea to him is that he take immediate steps to resolve the shortage of eggs and milk, which has been plaguing the State of Goa for quite some time.  The government can set up poultry farms and dairies across the State to overcome the shortage. It can be a semi-government venture with investments from the public.

As in Mumbai the Government of Maharashtra-run Aarey Milk Colony supplies thousands of litres of milk to the commercial capital of India.

The venture will also provide employment to hundreds of Goans, especially during a crisis like the prevailing one as a result of Covid-19 infections. It will also boost the economy of the State.
