PANJIM: On June 3, we asked you watch this space. We went back to the entrance of Sharada Mandir at Miramar at 1 pm on the third day of school after it reopened, and saw that what we feared was not just true but worse. With one stretch of the road blocked due to the concretization of the stretch of the Miramar – Dona Paula road, students and parents were literally trapped among the mud, debris and cars as the school concluded. The government which promised to complete the road before the school opened wasn’t there to see what we saw.
With the advent of the monsoon, this road if not completed on a war footing will turn out to be a worse nightmare than it already is given that there are piles of mud and pits that will obviously fill up with water once the monsoon hits the state in its full fury
Many parents have expressed their fear and concern about the safety of students once the monsoons begin.
