Benaulim locals foil garbage dump
HERALD REPORTER
MARGAO, OCT 24
Alert Benaulim villagers once again on Sunday foiled yet another attempt by miscreants from dumping garbage and waste in the village.
Youngsters – who have been maintaining vigil against miscreants dumping waste in the village – spotted waste dumping before intimating the activity to the Colva police.
Sadly, the Colva police was initially hesitant to book the culprits involved in waste dumping, but later decided to register a case at the police station.
PSI Sudesh told Herald that the police will register a case under section 34 of the IPC against the culprit.
This is not the first time that the Benaulim youth have played the role of the authorities in foiling attempts by unscrupulous businessmen from dumping waste in the village.
Last Sunday saw the youngsters helping the police to arrest a businessman from Colva after waste from his premises landed along the road leading the St John the Baptist Church.
