Priol still has no roads in the hilly terrain

19 Sep 2017 08:50 PM

Priol locals are an upset lot. Even in this time and age they cannot even take their two wheelers or 4 wheelers to their door steps. And why? Because either landlords,



or those occupying the land are loathe to give them their NOC’s for an access or the authorities have not managed to conquer the hilly terrain and build roads. 

 On a normal day this lack of road access is a nuisance. But in case of a medical emergency it can be a real catastrophe.

Patients have to be carried on makeshift stretchers on to the main roads, which sometimes take 15 minutes to reach. Art and Culture Minister Govind Gaude,

who is the local MLAtold Goa 365 that he was aware of the situation. He said that Priol is one area that has access problems not least of all due to the hilly terrain.
