Cecille Rodrigues has voiced concern over the ongoing controversy surrounding alleged remarks made against Saint Francis Xavier, stating that members of the Catholic community are deeply hurt and are seeking justice.
Rodrigues emphasised that while the community remains committed to peace, there is a strong expectation that authorities ensure no statements are made that could offend religious sentiments or disrupt social harmony in Goa.
She also appealed to Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to take appropriate action, address the concerns raised by the community, and ensure that law and order is maintained across the state.
