Today that dream has been fulfilled. I am thankful to MLA Michael Lobo for supporting this work and ensuring its timely completion before Chaturthi,” Vaigankar said .He added that the new Vaat will prevent overcrowding at other immersion sites and provide a more organized experience for families. The inauguration was attended by panchayat members, villagers and devotees in large numbers who welcomed the development.
