Saligao church road work begins

Saligao: The works of widening of the approach road to the Mae de Deus Church and two wards of Saligao has commenced following permission granted by the land owner.
Saligao MLA Jayesh Salgaonkar, Saligao sarpanch Lafira Gomes, parish priest Fr John D’Silva, panch member Kalpana Oraskar, former sarpanch Eknath Oraskar and Lucas Remedios were present.
There was a persistent demand from locals to widen the road. But as there was a field by the roadside, the Saligao panchayat managed to obtain permission from the land owner to widen the stretch. This road-widening work will be carried out at a cost of Rs 25 lakh.
Salgaonkar said that the Salmona spring beautification is nearing completion and the spring will be reopened to the public by the month-end.
To query if he was joining any other party, Salgaonkar said that he has not taken any decision even as many functionaries of political parties were in touch with him to join them.
