PANAJI: Chief Minister Pramod Sawant chaired a detailed review meeting of 131 project proposals submitted under the Goa Gram Samruddhi Yojana (GGSY) of the Department of Rural Development, aiming to ensure that the benefits of development reach every corner of the State.
The comprehensive assessment focused on strengthening grassroots infrastructure and accelerating community development works across Goa.
During the meeting, it was decided that priority would be given to works recommended by MLAs from all 40 Assembly Constituencies, ensuring that at least one project is executed in every constituency under the scheme.
In a significant move, the Chief Minister also proposed provision of additional funds over and above the existing ₹20 crore allocation in the upcoming financial year to enable effective implementation of public infrastructure and community-oriented projects under GGSY.
Reaffirming the government’s commitment to balanced regional growth, Dr Sawant stated that the Government of Goa remains focused on the accelerated execution of grassroots initiatives that strengthen the State’s development foundation, adding that GGSY is helping build stronger and better-connected communities across Goa.
