the Goenche Xettkarancho Ekvott alongwith GOAMAP organised a minig trip to the minig belt. a bus and 2 cars were organised for the trip. media person from various print media were also present.
the trip started from quepem and culminated at shirgao, bicholim. the whole mining strecth was covered within the whole day. rama velip, seby rodrigues, ramesh gauns and shankar jogg were the resource person, who did a fantastic job with teh minute details of the mines and teh miners. an interesting thing was to sight one of the miners stalking us from quepem upto sanguem. names like chowgules, dempos, vendantas, timblos, sesas were the common names which greeted us all along the mining stretch.
this trip was organised so as to get direct experince and knowlegde about the mines and mining and the devastation they create. its really heartening to see the hills and teh mountains stooping low with embarrasemnt and agony. the color of teh hills and teh trees is slowly changing from green to red.(mr govt are you listening)
such minig trips will be organised by these two groups, those whoever interested can contact Mr. Ahbjeet Prabhudessai on 9623770690
