Panaji: The delegation of MLAs, villagers and concerned citizens today called on Chief Minister Pramod Sawant demanding postponement public hearing on proposed Marina project at Nauxi village, scheduled on November 2.
The delegation has said that pending finalization of the coastal zone management plan (CZMP) of the State no public hearing on marina project be held.
Chief Minister is expected to take a call the demand by Wednesday evening, in consultation with North Goa Collector and officials of Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB).
The delegation was represented by BJP St Cruz MLA Tony Fernandes, Cortalim MLA Alina Saldanha and Congress Curtorim MLA Alexio Reginaldo Lourenco along with activists like Rama Kankonkar and locals.
Speaking to reporters after meeting, Saldanha said that the delegation has demanded that pending finalization of CZMP, the scheduled public hearing be postponed.
“CZMP is a crucial document which speaks about the environment, ecology and eco-sensitive areas of the village. Holding public hearing in absence of such crucial document is against the law,” she said.
