Rising Concerns Over Heritage Preservation in Old Goa: Activists Call for Action Against New Developments.
Concerns have been raised about an old bungalow in Goa, particularly regarding its construction within a protected heritage zone. Local activists from the Save Old Goa Action Committee have been vocal against a recent resort project approved by the government, despite receiving over 17,000 objections from residents. They argue that the project threatens the area’s architectural significance and integrity.
Additionally, there have been protests emphasizing the need to preserve Goa’s heritage, particularly as the site is recognized by UNESCO for its historical value. Activists are advocating for stricter regulations to protect such heritage sites from commercial exploitation.
