Salkar Raises Fumigation Issue in Zero Hour; CM Dr. Pramod Sawant Directs Chief Secretary to Resolve Matter Immediately

Vasco MLA Krishna Salkar raises urgent issue of the stoppage of municipal fumigation during Zero Hour, highlighting the difficulties faced by residents and the growing threat of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and malaria.

Salkar pointed out that fumigation was earlier undertaken by councillors in their areas, particularly during the monsoon,and with the practice now stopped following a Health circular, it was impossible for the Health Department alone to effectively cover all 25 wards

Taking serious note of Salkar’s intervention, CM Dr. Pramod Sawant directs the Chief Secretary to resolve the matter immediately

Krishna Daji Salkar urges government to put in place a safe, regulated and practical mechanism to ensure fumigation wherever necessary, stressing that the health and safety of citizens must remain the foremost priority.

GUNFIRE AT THE DOORSTEP OF PORVORIM POLICE STATION: GOA’S LAW & ORDER HAS COLLAPSED — Girish Chodankar

Panaji, August 28, 2026:
Goa Pradesh Congress Committee President Girish Chodankar launched a scathing attack on the BJP Government over the reported firing incident near the Porvorim Police Station, saying the incident is a frightening reflection of the complete breakdown of law and order in Goa.

“If criminals have the audacity to allegedly open fire just metres away from a police station, then who is actually in control in Goa — the Police or the criminals?” Chodankar asked.

He said the incident has exposed the hollow claims of the BJP Government about maintaining law and order.

“A police station is supposed to be a symbol of fear for criminals and security for citizens. But if gunfire can reportedly take place at its doorstep, the BJP Government must explain what has happened to the authority of the police in Goa,” Chodankar said.

He questioned whether the common Goan can still expect protection from the Government when incidents involving guns and criminal intimidation are increasingly becoming a matter of public concern.

“The most disturbing aspect is that even people perceived to be close to the BJP establishment are reportedly not safe. If the powerful themselves are vulnerable, what chance does an ordinary Goan have? Has Goa now reached a stage where political connections cannot even guarantee personal safety?” he asked.

Chodankar demanded that the Government and police authorities immediately identify the perpetrators, establish the motive behind the firing and ensure that no political influence is allowed to derail the investigation.

He said the BJP Government cannot continue to hide behind statements and photo opportunities while citizens live under fear.

“Goa is being turned into a State where criminals appear increasingly emboldened while law-abiding citizens are made to feel helpless. This is not ‘Good Governance’. This is a dangerous governance failure,” Chodankar said.

He further accused the Government of becoming more concerned about protecting its political image than protecting the people of Goa.

“The BJP Government must understand that law and order is not a publicity exercise. It is the fundamental responsibility of any Government. Every gunshot near a police station sends a chilling message: the fear of the law is disappearing. The Government must restore that fear among criminals before Goa pays an even heavier price,” Chodankar warned.

“Goans do not want a gun culture. They do not want criminal intimidation. They do not want to live in fear. Goa deserves safety, security and dignity — not gunfire at the doorstep of a police station.”

*पर्वरी पोलीस ठाण्याच्या दारातच गोळीबार: गोव्यातील कायदा-सुव्यवस्था पूर्णपणे कोलमडली — गिरीश चोडणकर*

पणजी, २८ ऑगस्ट २०२६:
पर्वरी पोलीस ठाण्याजवळ गोळीबाराची घटना घडल्याचे वृत्त समोर आल्यानंतर गोवा प्रदेश काँग्रेस समितीचे अध्यक्ष गिरीश चोडणकर यांनी भाजप सरकारवर जोरदार हल्लाबोल केला. पोलीस ठाण्यापासून अवघ्या काही मीटर अंतरावर घडलेली ही घटना गोव्यातील कायदा व सुव्यवस्थेच्या पूर्णपणे झालेल्या अधःपतनाचे भयावह चित्र असल्याचे त्यांनी म्हटले.

“एखाद्या पोलीस ठाण्यापासून अवघ्या काही मीटर अंतरावर गुन्हेगारांना कथितरित्या गोळीबार करण्याचे धाडस होत असेल, तर गोव्यात नेमके कोणाचे राज्य आहे — पोलिसांचे की गुन्हेगारांचे?” असा सवाल चोडणकर यांनी केला.

भाजप सरकारकडून कायदा व सुव्यवस्था सुरळीत असल्याचे केले जाणारे दावे या घटनेने पोकळ ठरल्याचे त्यांनी सांगितले.

“पोलीस ठाणे हे गुन्हेगारांसाठी कायद्याची दहशत आणि नागरिकांसाठी सुरक्षिततेचे प्रतीक असले पाहिजे. मात्र, पोलीस ठाण्याच्या अगदी दारातच गोळीबार होत असेल, तर गोव्यातील पोलिसांचा धाक नेमका कुठे राहिला आहे, याचे उत्तर भाजप सरकारने द्यावे,” असे चोडणकर म्हणाले.

बंदुका आणि गुन्हेगारी स्वरूपाच्या धमक्यांच्या घटना सातत्याने चिंतेचा विषय बनत असताना, सामान्य गोमंतकीयांना सरकारकडून सुरक्षिततेची अपेक्षा तरी कशी ठेवता येईल, असा प्रश्नही त्यांनी उपस्थित केला.

“सर्वात गंभीर बाब म्हणजे भाजपच्या सत्ताकेंद्राच्या जवळचे मानले जाणारे लोकही सुरक्षित नसल्याचे दिसून येत आहे. जर प्रभावशाली व्यक्तींनाही सुरक्षिततेची हमी मिळत नसेल, तर सामान्य गोमंतकीयांचे काय? राजकीय जवळीक असतानाही वैयक्तिक सुरक्षेची हमी मिळू शकत नाही, अशा टप्प्यावर गोवा पोहोचला आहे का?” असा सवाल त्यांनी केला.

या गोळीबाराच्या घटनेतील दोषींना तातडीने शोधून काढावे, गोळीबारामागील नेमके कारण स्पष्ट करावे आणि तपासावर कोणत्याही प्रकारचा राजकीय दबाव अथवा हस्तक्षेप होणार नाही, याची खात्री करावी, अशी मागणी चोडणकर यांनी सरकार आणि पोलीस प्रशासनाकडे केली.

“नागरिक भीतीच्या वातावरणात जगत असताना भाजप सरकार केवळ निवेदने आणि प्रसिद्धीच्या कार्यक्रमांच्या आड लपून राहू शकत नाही. सरकारने आपल्या जबाबदारीपासून पळ काढणे थांबवून जनतेच्या सुरक्षेला सर्वोच्च प्राधान्य द्यावे,” असे ते म्हणाले.

“गोव्याचे असे राज्य बनवले जात आहे की, जिथे गुन्हेगारांचे मनोबल वाढत आहे आणि कायद्याचे पालन करणाऱ्या नागरिकांना असहाय्य वाटत आहे. हे ‘सुशासन’ नाही; तर सरकारच्या कारभाराचे आणि कायदा-सुव्यवस्था यंत्रणेचे गंभीर अपयश आहे,” अशी टीका चोडणकर यांनी केली.

सरकारवर जनतेच्या सुरक्षेपेक्षा स्वतःची राजकीय प्रतिमा जपण्यात अधिक रस असल्याचा आरोपही त्यांनी केला.

“भाजप सरकारने हे लक्षात ठेवावे की कायदा व सुव्यवस्था हा प्रसिद्धीचा विषय नाही. नागरिकांचे संरक्षण करणे ही कोणत्याही सरकारची मूलभूत जबाबदारी आहे. पोलीस ठाण्याजवळ झालेला प्रत्येक गोळीबार हा एक गंभीर संदेश देतो — गुन्हेगारांच्या मनात कायद्याची भीती कमी होत चालली आहे. गोवा आणखी मोठी किंमत मोजण्यापूर्वी सरकारने गुन्हेगारांच्या मनात कायद्याचा धाक पुन्हा निर्माण करणे आवश्यक आहे,” असा इशारा चोडणकर यांनी दिला.

“गोमंतकीयांना बंदुकीची संस्कृती नको आहे. गुन्हेगारी दहशत नको आहे. भीतीच्या वातावरणात जगणे नको आहे. गोव्याला सुरक्षितता, संरक्षण आणि सन्मान हवा आहे — पोलीस ठाण्याच्या दारात गोळीबार नाही.”
