The four-day monsoon session of the Goa legislative assembly got off to a noisy start with the opposition demanding a discussion on the Mhadei issue before the governor's address to the house. Scientific studies have shown that the diversion of the Mhadei has not only adversely impacted the acquatic life and natural flow of the Mandovi but also that of the Zuari river. The opposition also sought clarification on whether the DPR had been withdrawn by the Central government, even our Chief Minister Pramod Sawant who shouts from the rooftops at every given opportunity that Mhadei is like his mother didn't come forward to clear the air. Infact he thundered that the opposition was not serious about government issues or Mhadei but just wanted to play to the gallery. Never in the history of Goa have we had such an arrogant CM or such a partisan governor, let's bring about a positive change in 2024.
