MARGAO: The Shadow Council of Margao (SCM) on Thursday said that the cat is finally out of the bag while referring to the untested experiment of biomethanation mooted by Waste Management Minister Michael Lobo.
Convenor Savio Coutinho stated that Lobo who projected himself as a Good Samaritan, desperately wanting to settle the Margao waste problem, has finally revealed his motive of having more interest in the funds of Margao Municipal Council.

The Shadow Council for Margao made a fervent appeal to all the three MLAs and the 25 councillors to study the project thoroughly before it is too late.
The SCM asked how could the Minister even dream of expecting the council to deposit funds with the Goa Waste Management Corporation (GWMC) for the execution of his own experiment which is untested.
“The letter from the GWMC dated October 12 makes it mandatory for the council to obtain all the necessary approvals from the government and finally deposit the funds with the GWMC, which is beyond our scope of imagination considering the fact that all through he made everyone believe that funds would be arranged by the Waste Management Corporation,” said Coutinho.
