MARGAO: Chandor-Cavorim special gram sabha held on Independence Day resolved to get information from the villagers with regards to the Coastal Zone Management Plan and prepare its own CZMP as the villagers have already rejected the draft plan prepared by National Centre for Sustainable Coastal Management from Chennai.
The gram sabha that had attracted quite a crowd resolved to prepare a new CZMP which would be placed before the villagers at a specially convened gram sabha only to discuss the plan and following that it would be sent to the authorities.
Ironically, though the panchayat had asked the environment department to depute an officer to explain the draft prepared by NCSCM to the villagers, no officer from the department came for the special gram sabha.
