Incidentally this was on the lines of a similar demand that had been made by the Navelim MLA Avertano Furtado three years ago. At a recent gram sabha, the issue of how to handle garbage and various suggestions was the mainstay of the proceedings.
In addition to the demand that the MMC collect waste from Davorlim, it was also suggested that vigilant residents be rewarded.
It was suggested that a part of the fines collected for illegal garbage dumping be awarded to alert villagers who catch those dumping garbage by the roadside.
Sarpanch Tulsidas Desai suggested that the shoulders of the eastern bypass be barricaded.
as it has turned into a garbage dump and that they would also erect signboards banning dumping of garbage.
