HIGH COURT NOTICE TO GOVERNMENT OVER ILLEGAL CONSTRUCTION

The high court of Bombay at Goa on Tuesday issued notice to the town and country planning department, department of mines and geology, captain of ports, deputy collector, mamlatdar of Mapusa, director general of police, Calangute police and Panaji police with regard to 92 illegal constructions in Candolim and Calangute.
A division bench of Justice V K Tahilaramani and Justice N A Britto passed the directions in a petition filed by Cliffon Dias, Damatalio Dias and Santan Cardoso complaining about indiscriminate hill-cutting and illegal constructions in Calangute and Candolim.
The petitioners have alleged that the authorities have been turning a Nelson's eye to the illegalities despite several complaints made by them. They have pointed out that they had complained in 2006 but no action had been taken.
