Panchwadi people has now gone to the Ponda police station to further force the police to arrest the goons. Comments : It is heartening to read of the unity among Panchwadi residents who marched on to take on the goons who were cutting down the forest no matter what the consequences. It is a shame that maybe we have more enemies from within than from outside as some of our very Goans are the ones who are raping and destroying Goa. It is easy to blame outsiders but the truth is we ourselves are primarily responsible for destroying Goa. According to the report available information Ponda police has caught one Shamir D'Costa and processing his arrests. Others who were involved in the assault on villagers includes Agustine D'Costa, Cyril D'Costa, Lorik D'Costa, Johnson D'Costa and Maria D'costa. Except Maria D'costa everyone is absconding from the village. All these names appear to be Goans and actions appear to be for personal gains. Four villagers from Panchwadi were beaten up by the goons. The four villagers include Costao Fernandes who is admitted in government hospital in Margao with injuries, Derek D'Costa, Nazareth Godhinho and Classey Costa. The fifth one Cristev D'Costa who was also chased by goons jumped into Zuari river and swam across to escape unhurt. These Goans are patriotic and true lovers of Goa. It is disgusting to read that Rajendra Kakodkar, a member of Mangroves Society of India, the scientist who is responsible to give a report to the government that there are no Mangroves existing in Panchwadi - Dr. Arvind G. Untawale, former Director of National Institute of Oceonagraphy, Dona Paula, Goa - is also the executive secretary of Mangroves Society of India, and a member of Japan based organization - International Society for Mangrove Ecosystem (ISME) and is duty bound to protect Mangrove Ecosystems. These persons are responsible and supposed to be our saviours of our envinronment but they themselves are destroying it for best reasons to them and for personal gains. They should be condemned and boycotted. It is lack of unity that gives the opportunity to these rogues to do what they do as they are not accountable. If only they were dragged to court and made accountable things would have been different.
