In a social media post shared by the twitter handle of @savmollemgoa stating Alexyz read, “Why coal when there are eco alternatives. But these ruthless guys have their own agenda to kill Goa’s forests, rivers, seas, hills, habitats, to transport coal. Let’s shame these guys. Don’t be sossegado. Join eco warriors NGO’s . Write letters. Be a proud goan. So you can tell your kids, grand kids. You did your bit to save goa. It’s now or never.”
