Panaji: Congress takes a signal from Raghunath Mashelkar’s report, Goa Vision 2035, and promises the country “calm, cultured, sustainable, enlightened, rich, and regulated”.
While the manifeste avoided an announcement that was too high and populist, it promised to lower the tax on the fuel so that the price of diesel and gasoline could be reduced downward 80 per liter.
Congress also promised to scrap the three linear projects in Mollem.
President of State President Girish Chodankar said that Congress would form the Manifesto implementation committee to ensure that all schemes were implemented sequentially.
Unlike TMC and AAP, which announces the welfare scheme that will provide a large burden on FECEQUER, the Manifesto Congress said that “fiscal discipline will be his characteristic” from his government.
“We will ensure that a large debt burden on every Goan placed by the BJP government is currently effectively reduced during a period of time by adopting austerity steps,” Manifesto said.
Manifesto is along the report line submitted by the Golden Jubilee Goa development board, led by Dr.
Raghunath Mashelkar, the recipient of Padma Vibhushan.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi said that the Goa government would focus on the creation of employment, and the Manifesto Congress has stated that private companies will get incentives if 50% of their employees are GOANS.
All government recruitment will go through the Goa Staff Election Commission with a general written examination conducted.
The test results will apply for a year, Manifesto said.
Congress has also promised a comprehensive land development reform, vowed to frame a new regional plan for the country within two years while limiting the role of planning and development authorities to prepare for outline development plans.
“Parts 16b of TCP actions, which have become a source of corruption, will be removed,” Manifesto said.
As expected, Congress also provides a great emphasis on women-centric policies, promising 30% reservation in government work for women, more women’s police companies, public transportation specifically for women, and hostels who work for women.
Congress also promised to remember Kadamba Transport Corporation, implement a public transit system that quickly connects Panaji to Mapapa, Vasco, Ponda and Margao, reviewing goamile contracts and promoting electric vehicles.
In terms of environmental protection, Congress has promised to make every effort to revoke CRZ 2019 notification and revive Crz 2011, which protects ecologically sensitive features.
The party also said that Goa would not be allowed to become a coal hub or gambling hub.
