MARGAO: Former Nuvem MLA Mickky Pacheco on Sunday alleged that the Government and the Chief Minister are to be blamed for the spike in COVID-19 cases in Goa.
Mickky accused the Government of failing to take care of Goans.
Addressing a press briefing with the representatives of Colva, Seraulim, Betalbatim and other coastal villages, Mickky said, “The Government is completely responsible for the increase in cases in Goa from zero to 400. When you started the unlocking process, the borders should have been sealed and trains and flights stopped”.
“If their own BJP-ruled States can stop travellers coming via road, rail and flights (domestic) to their States, why didn’t the BJP government in Goa do that,” he questioned.
Criticising Benaulim MLA Churchill Alemao, Mickky said “The Benaulim MLA should take the COVID Care Centre to his village and see if people allow him to set up the same”.
