To Goanet - This is the document I referred to in an earlier post. I have photographed all the pages and then consolidated the jpegs into a pdf file. At the broadband speeds I get in Panjim, the download of this 10 MB file should take no more than 3-4 minutes.
The land conversions summarized here date from the beginning of 2005 to the first 3 months or so of 2008. The file is divided by talukas. The following abbreviations are employed (see the first column): BAR = Bardez BICH = Bicholim PER = Pernem PON = Ponda SAT = Sattari TIS = Tiswadi It is imperative that we obtain a corresponding document for South Goa. Someone ought to file an RTI request with the Collectorate in Margao. That we have been lead down the garden path by our political leaders is evident. But we should also question those phonies - i.e. leaders of the Goa Bachao Abhiyan - who have proved themselves to be adepts at petty politicking and not much else. http://www.parrikar.org/misc/Land-Conversion-NorthGoa.pdf Warm regards, r
