*Migrant housing projects
Rosario D’Costa, Varca
*The government is confusing the people with the definition of mega housing
projects. Keep aside the terminology; Goans are rightly opposing housing
projects ranging anywhere between 10 and 50 housing units and more,
depending on the situation. This opposition is for the simple reason that
the government cannot meet the needs of existing Goans in terms of waste
management, traffic management, water supply, electricity, drainage, health,
security, employment, price rise, impacts of migration, environmental
protection, protection of our beautiful villages, etc. These small or big
housing projects are only increasing these problems. These housing
facilities, being out of reach for a majority of Goans, are a perfect
invitation for migrants.
