recently- inaugurated walking track at Bicholim is getting an overwhelming
response and many people have begun using the track to the extent that police
personnel have been deployed at the track at late hours.
The Rs 2.5 crore project was constructed over the earlier retaining bandh which
was constructed to retain the water from entering the town during the monsoon.
The length of the track is about 1.5 kms.
“ This is a very good initiative and is helpful to many people from Bicholim.
During the morning and also during the evening people flock to this place which
lies on one side of the town,” Mahesh Govekar said. He added, “ Just recently
there had been some problems related to security of the area and now the police
have been deployed at the site.” Even late at night people come to this place
for a stroll and the police are deployed from 5 pm to 11 pm.
“ There are senior citizens and women who come to this place even late at night
and so security is very important.
Two constables and a home guard have been deployed at the site,” Bicholim
police said.
Close to the walking track a new garden is coming up which once completed will
make the entire place look prettier.
Police posted to ensure security at night; garden being developed in the area
will enhance beauty of the place SAMIR UMARyE bichOlim
