The overhead tank costing Rs 70 lakh will cater to the residents in and around Monte Hill and also give them relief from the inconsistent water supply in the past. The construction work was completed in three years.
“I have always focused on creating the basic infrastructure in Margao,” he further stated.
Digambar said, “Today, most of the areas in Margao are connected with the underground sewerage system. The town also has underground power cabling. We have water reservoir at Gogal and Monte Hill and also overhead tanks which can supply water to the entire town for a minimum of 4 to 5 days in case there is a breakdown in the pipeline supplying water from Salaulim to Margao.”
“Initiated plans for the beautification of the entire town will be taken up in a phased manner,” he added.
