According to the reports received yesterday large scale mining silt has entered Selaulim Dam past one week due to heavy rains. The mine in inside the Dam reservoir was in operation till few months ago at the behest of Saolgaocars and Alemaos both of whom are elected members of the Goa Legislative Assembly.

Selaulim dam caters to the water needs of South Goa as well as Central Goa as its water is pumped out and released into Opa water works located in Ponda taluka.
