Cops question Congress MLA Alemao over protest outside Goa minister Rane’s home
PANAJI: (Apr 27) Leader of Opposition in the Goa assembly Yuri Alemao on Monday recorded his statement before police in a case related to a protest march held outside Town and Country Planning Minister Vishwajit Rane’s home, seeking the scrapping of a contentious land conversion provision.
Several hundred agitators had protested outside Rane’s residence in Dona Paula near Panaji on February 24, when Revolutionary Goans Party MLA Viresh Borkar began a fast-unto-death demanding the scrapping of Section 39-A of the Town and Country Planning Act.
The section enables the conversion of non-settlement zone into settlement zone, paving the way for construction activities.
