Adv. Aires Rodrigues has today filed a complaint with the North Goa Collector against Imagine Panaji Smart City Development Limited (IPSCDL) for dumping a lot of its material including some earthmoving machinery at the Ribandar football ground.
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 has drawn the attention of the Collector that the IPSCDL has 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 has stated that these acts by IPSCDL are absolutely illegal, unauthorized and a clear high-handed trespass into Ribandar’s football ground.
Stating that this is a very grave injustice to Ribandar’s young sportsmen for whom this is the only available ground for sports and recreation, Adv. Rodrigues has 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.
