Miscreants put fire to thermocol waste in market

MARGAO, NOV 17
Two days after residents of Madel protested against the unhygienic conditions in the wholesale fish market, unknown miscreants has set afire the thermocol waste in the market complex.
The incident occurred late Tuesday night when mounds of thermocol waste were reduced to ashes, causing air pollution in the locality.
This is not the first time that thermocol waste has been disposed off in the market by fire, with residents claiming that miscreants make bonfire of thermocol to rid the market of the waste.
Incidentally, the SGPDA had been found wanting on many occasions to dispose off the thermocol waste and its pleas to the fish merchants to restrict the use of thermocol while importing fish to Goa has apparently fallen to deaf ears.
