CALANGUTE, JULY 10
Residents of Nagoa-Arpora have been hit by malaria, with a number of affected people in the village.
Till Saturday, 10 people have either been admitted in hospitals at Mapusa or are affected by Malaria and the residents are living in fear.
Residents suspect there is every possibility of the spread of malaria due to unhygienic conditions prevailing at construction sites of a mega project in the vicinity.
When contacted, Dr Sachin Govekar who is presently in New Delhi said: “A few residents from that area had called to brief me about the malaria cases.” Dr Govekar has promised to look into the matter once he is back from Delhi on Monday.
