Contaminated water: Cong wants to inspect Assonora plant
Saligao: With increasing complaints from residents of Bardez taluka about receiving contaminated water supply from the public works department (PWD), North Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (NGPCC) has sought permission from the PWD executive engineer of department DIV XVII to visit the Assonora water treatment plant and carry out a site inspection.
Speaking to reporters, North Goa district committee president Vijai Bhike said, “Most of the time, the engineer says that there is some problem at the Assonora treatment plant, but we would like to check whether it is really working.
We demand that the authorities allow us to inspect the site of the plant, so that we get to know the exact cause of the water contamination.”
Meanwhile, on the water shortage issue in Panaji, Bhike said Congress has already taken out an protest march to the PWD office at Altinho over the issue.
