*Marcaim Villagers oppose grant of comunidade land to trust- H* http://www.epaperoheraldo.in/Details.aspx?id=24623&boxid=14541655&uid=&dat=11/28/2016
GSRP's response for kind favour of publication: GSRP lauds the efforts of the People of Marcaim in objecting to the transfer of comunidade lands to Trusts. Comunidade lands must be reserved primarily for Agriculture and for essential projects that will benefit the community in the long run. Such essential project should not be allowed to come up on comunidade agricultural lands. In time to come, GSRP will see to it that Goa's Comunidades shall regain their pre 1961 status of being the Goa's primary agrarian institutions.

Educational institutions like IIT etc are a must for the growth of Goa's talents. But this should not be at the cost of other basic needs which are more vital than what people feel is imposed on them. Let the people make their qualified choices without monstrosities being imposed on them by force by the powers that be. Any development which is essential to the well-being of the people shall be welcomed by the people and those developments such as the Defence Expo which are in deed white elephants must be rejected outright. GSRP is particularly happy that the local people are against the development of the plateaus of the area as these are the treasures of Goa which cannot and will not be allowed to be destroyed at any costs for monetary gains of speculators or for governmental hand-outs.
