VASCO: The residents from different parts of Mormugao constituency have come together and formed an NGO namely ‘Mormugao United’ to fight against injustice and for their rights.
An office to serve the people has been also opened by the NGO at Headland Sada.
Speaking to reporters, Suraj alias Balan Chodankar who is the founder member of newly formed NGO said, “Having such NGO in our Mormugao Constituency was need of the hour as there are many issues faced by the locals but under fear of getting targeted by political leaders people were hesitating to come forward. Now we all likeminded people of Baina, Vasco, Headland Sada, Bogda have come together and we assure to offer all help to the residents by taking up their issues at the highest level. Also as an individual people fear to even come out and speak about his or her problem, but this NGO will try to become their voice.”
WISL workers union leader Alexander Pacheco who is also a founder member of NGO said, “We formed this NGO to fight against injustice to the people and for their rights. Our NGO is totally non political and no member will misuse the NGO for any political gains.”
Our motto will be to provide as much help we can to the people as during elections we all had climbed different political stages and had made several promise to the people. Now it’s time to help the people and to show the people that we are with them”.
