Social media is a powerful weapon to instantly create awareness across the world on an issue we feel strongly about. Substandard public works being the order of the day, citizens should be vigilant that every work being executed with public funds must strictly meet quality standards. By putting a little extra effort we can all make our Goa a better place for all.
