Thanks to Aldeia de Goa project Goan family's traditional acess blocked at Bambolim beach

One family in Bambolim, Goa was in rude shock today. The ancestral traditional access road to their house turned into pool water in survey number 101/1. At around 3.30 pm today two family members - Tulsidas Gauns and Rahul Gauns set out for Panjim. The next moment they got a call from their home that their road is dug. They now are facing the tough question as to how to get back into their House for the night. The question is there also for the family members inside the house as to how they are going to have access to the main road. The builder who dig this is the same one who has built high profile and controversial Aldeia de Goa project - Goan Real Estate and Constructions Pvt Ltd.

The family used the 17 meters stretch of road as is used by the 8 residents of house residing in House No. 240/5 located at Zoribhat, Near Bambolim Beach Resort, Bambolim. Survey number of their land is 102/4.

Eight family members who are the residents of this place for the past over 40 years and always used this traditional road includes Gonu Krishna Gauns (69 years), Laxmi Guno Gauns (65 years) and their family members.

Family earlier anticipating this situation had filed complaints with various authorities that includes the following:

1. To the Sarpanch of Curca, Bambolim Panchayat on 22/01/2009.
2. To The Aggasaim Police Station on 23/012009
3. To The deputy Town Planner, Town & Country Planning Department.
4. To The Mamlatdar of Tiswadi, Panjim.
