I was traveling from Panjim to Margao a couple of days ago and witnessed something shocking. All the mangroves on the eastern side of the national highway towards Margao at Merces seem to be dying or dead and destroyed. 

Seems like Goa was dying a slow death before, and is now being suffocated at full throttle.
