The demand for opening a higher secondary school at St Thereza School, Chaudi is a very genuine demand and the demand for it should not be termed as false by advocates sitting in Panjim. We the people of Canacona know our difficulties. The people of Canacona are migrating to Margao for want of better educational and medical facilities in Canacona. Here old people are left behind at the mercy of migrant care takers.
The percentage of majority community in this school is nearly 75% and they show more faith in Diocesan run schools. The speed at which the local MLA gets approval for his school balram is interesting. The news that AAP barred from meeting MLA speaks volumes of our MLA lending a ear in improving health and education of Canacona. Salute to the church for taking up the issue of education.
