Govt turns blind eye toward Betul fort

 Betul is a coastal area in South Goa. There is a fort in the village having a historical importance.  It is said to have been built by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj  in the year 1679. The 300- year-old fort is standing tall by protecting its identity on the mouth of Sal river. Sadly, it has not been registered in Archaeology department, as a result it is not being repaired. Locals say the government is duty bound to repair the fort as it has historic importance.
