Panaji: Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Friday said his government is committed to facilitating the regularisation of houses for Goans through the introduction of various legislations.
He said that the government aims to make sure that the Goans do not worry about demolition of their houses, which are constructed on government land or community lands.
Addressing state level function on the occasion of Independence Day in Panaji, Sawant said that various legislations are moved during the recently held Assembly session which will regularise the houses of Goans.

“The original Goans have been living for decades in the houses which are constructed in the government land. They were always afraid of litigations resulting in demolition of their structures,” he said.
Sawant said that the government has allowed such houses to be regularised so that they are saved from the fear of demolition.
Similarly, he said, there are some lands which are constructed on communidad (community) lands, who exist there for years.

“We have passed a law which will help them regularise their houses by paying certain fine,” he said.
Sawant appealed the opposition parties not to play politics over the matter and allow Goans to have right over their own dwellings.
The chief minister was apparently referring to the protest by opposition benches during the recently concluded Assembly session, who had opposed the passage of the law regularising the houses on communidad lands.

He said that the BJP government is working towards all inclusive approach.
