North Goa Collector Collector Mrs. R.Menaka accompanied by Additional Collector Mr. Vikas Gaunekar and Tiswadi Deputy Collector Mr. Vivek H.P on Wednesday inspected the Ribandar football ground where the Imagine Panaji Smart City Development Limited (IPSCDL) has dumped its huge equipment and material.
Adv. Aires Rodrigues in his complaint to the Collector last week had pointed out that the Ribandar football ground had become a dumping yard for the (IPSCDL)
Pointing out that Ribandar has only one playground where the youth have been playing football and cricket from time immemorial, Adv. Rodrigues in his complaint had drawn the attention of the Collector that the IPSCDL had also erected a huge shed to house its workers who are bathing in the open while another shed is being constructed to house more workers.
While submitting to the Collector photographs of the site, Adv. Rodrigues in his complaint had stated that these acts by IPSCDL were absolutely illegal, unauthorized and a clear high-handed trespass into Ribandar’s football ground.
Stating that this was a very grave injustice to Ribandar’s youth for whom this is the only available ground for sports and recreation, Adv. Rodrigues urged the Collector to direct the IPSCDL to immediately remove all their stuff which has been dumped and also the structures erected on the football ground besides taking action against IPSCDL for acting in violation of law.
