GOANS SAY A DECISIVE NO TO COAL By: Stephen Dias, Dona Paula
Dear Arun Sinha Editor Navhind Times Please publish this letter. Regards Stephen The people of Goa collectively have to galvanize support to that party that is not only promising but also which will act conclusively to stop Mormugao Port Trust ( MPT) from becoming a coal handling hub as also decisively stop transportation of coal through Goa. Coal is a third world fuel and the Adanis should not be allowed to use Goa as a coal conduit, thereby polluting the environment and Goans have to collectively stop Adanis from importing coal from their acquired Carmichael coal mine in Australia since coal anyway is a polluting commodity that will have drastic consequences on the ambient air quality in especially as is observed in the port town of Vasco. The Adanis who have taken a multibillion dollar loan to acquire the Carmichael mines have no business and should be put out of their coal business which is contributing to large scale pollution of the environment wherever they are using it in India. It is high time that the people of Goa say a decisive NO to coal. Stephen Dias Dona Paula Social Activist 94223110 6th November 2021
