MARGAO: Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant must ensure that there should not be any cost of the training imparted to the locals for all jobs including that of airport rescue and fire fighting staff who have already sacrificed their ancestral land for the Mopa Airport, stated Congress Working President and Curtorim MLA Aleixo Reginaldo Lourenco.
In a letter to the Chief Minister with regard to recruitment of airport rescue and fire fighting personnel at Mopa Airport, the MLA stated that the applicants had to apply through an email which was a very difficult task for many of the applicants due to the lack of infrastructure and inadequate knowledge of the email amongst the people.
He further mentioned that late Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar had assured locals of Pernem Taluka that the professional skills to them will be imparted free of cost along with the payment of stipend for jobs at Mopa Airport, which unfortunately is not getting reflected during the on-going recruitment process.
“Therefore, I once again kindly request our Chief Minister to personally intervene in this matter and provide justice to the local youth who are eager to work in skilled centric jobs at GMR Mopa Airport without paying any training cost and also the stipend should be paid to all selected trainees,” he urged.
