Work on the junction, including a mural, is currently underway and it will be inaugurated on his birth anniversary on December 13, he said.

“It is a tribute from the villagers of Parra to him. Parrikar started a political party from nothing in Goa and made it big. This is his village,” Lobo said after inaugurating a renovated Ganesh immersion pond at Parra.
