In fact,everyone listed and agreed on the serious dangers and numerousproblems that this needless night market will bring in. Variousvillagers, including the MLA pointed out how such night markets,being tourist attractions, destroy Goa's villages in ways that cannotbe repaired. TheMLA assured the delegation that asa policy, he does notsupport night markets. He had earlier messaged:“Mystand is clear that I don't endorse night markets that will kill thepeacefulvillage life of Saligao. My dream is to recognise Saligao as aHeritage Village. I am for a market which will encourageagriculturalproduceand artisansself-helpgroups,etc. I want a designated and a dedicated market for fish,for vegetable.” ThePanchayat and Communidade have firmly decided not to issue NOCs tothe night market. The MLA is strongly backing these decisions. Allthe 3 authorities assured the delegation that the proposed SaligaoNight Market will not happen. ThePanchayat and Communidade are also working on a day market forSaligao agricultural produce and other village products, as well as aFood Court that will house all the illegal gaddos that aremushrooming in the village.
