Reject ruling party and save heritage of Goa

Thousands of Goans under the banner of Save Old Goa Action Committee recently participated in a maha morcha near St Cajetan Church and rightly demanded the immediate demolition of an illegal construction/bungalow coming up within a radius of one-kilometre buffer zone near the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Old Goa.

The said illegal structure is believed to be constructed by a political functionary of the ruling BJP in the protected areas of Old Goa, due to which our state government is deliberately seen trying to turn a blind eye and refusing to take any action against the said upcoming illegal construction.
Goans should wake up at the very earliest and teach the ruling BJP government in the state a hard lesson in the upcoming assembly elections for deliberately promoting all types of illegalities near such historical sites to destroy the unique identity/heritage of Goa. Yes, the time starts now and it's now or never. Let's join hands together as Goans and reject the candidates of the BJP in the upcoming assembly elections to save the unique identity/heritage of Goa for good. Viva Goa.
