This event sponsored by Bhutani Infra should have been avoided by Goa CM who had no time to meet up with Sancoale (Goan) residents protesting against the Bhutani 700+ apartment/pools projects at Sancoale; but can make time to meet this mega developer at their call (and this was not the first time!) CM also disrespected the National Anthem by leaving/walking away while the anthem was playing! Is this not anti-national behaviour?
