Vaz who is known as one of the senior most panch members and confidant of Nuvem MLA Francisco Mickky Pacheco has promised to take up development works in the village and will urge the government to take up the village’s long standing demand of appointing a full time panchayat secretary. On the controversial issue of the CCTV cameras for the panchayat that were recently installed by the Majorda Sarpanch, Vaz has stated that he will check if the due procedure of law was followed and check if approvals are obtained by the directorate of panchayats first.
Incidentally the other nomination form of panch member Maria Belinda Rodrigues was rejected as she did not get any panch member to second her nomination that was proposed by sarpanch Georgina Mascarenhas. Moises Vaz was proposed by Manuel Santan Cardozo and his name was seconded by panch member Domnic Carvalho.
Mascarenhas was recently served a no confidence motion on July 16, by the rival panchas who have supported Vaz election as deputy sarpanch. It appears that the nine member panchayat is divided into two groups, the first being that of Mascarenhas and Rodrigrues versus the remaining seven panchas.
