Goan activist Shankar Polji recently appealed to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, advocating for infrastructure upgrades, including the expansion of rural connectivity and safety measures on highways within Goa. This appeal coincides with Gadkari’s active role in Goa’s infrastructure projects, such as the four-laning of National Highway 66 and the development of the Zuari River Bridge, which incorporate sustainable practices and modern technology. Polji emphasized that these initiatives could improve road safety and local accessibility, echoing Gadkari’s vision of a pollution-free Goa driven by green technology.
