The Panaji Smart City project, a vision aimed at transforming the capital city of Goa into a modern, sustainable, and efficient urban centre, has instead turned the city into a war zone.
The entire city dug up for sewerage and other works gives a picture of a conflict zone.
With the monsoons already at the doorsteps, Panjimites fear their worst nightmares could come true.
While the IPSCDL has assured the May 31 deadline for completion of works to the High Court it seems to be struggling to meet the deadline set by the High Court to complete all works by May 31.
Imagine Panaji Smart City Development Ltd (IPSCDL) has come under scrutiny for failing to adhere to the timeline and complete the designated projects on time.
Currently, not a single project is close to completion, and this delay poses a serious risk to the residents of Panaji.
The city is at risk of facing unprecedented floods due to inadequate drainage systems and infrastructure.
The recent loss of two lives due to the negligent work being carried out by contractors underscores the urgency of completing the projects as soon as possible.
The situation has raised concerns about the effectiveness and accountability of the IPSCDL officials.
The High Court must hold them accountable for their failure to meet the deadline and potentially misleading the court about the progress of the projects.
Action must be taken to ensure that the responsible parties are held accountable for their actions and that the projects are completed in a timely manner to prevent any further loss of innocent lives.
In conclusion, the Panaji Smart City project must be expedited to ensure the safety and well-being of the residents of the city.
The High Court’s deadline of May 31 must be taken seriously, and all efforts must be made to complete the projects on time. It is imperative that the IPSCDL officials are held accountable for their lack of progress and that measures are put in place to prevent any further delays.
The future of Panaji as a smart and sustainable city depends on the timely completion of these crucial projects.
