Goa has enough water to export: Ravi

Goa gets ample rain which gives enough water for Goans. If this water is stored by building dams it can be used for plantations. Also the state could import this water, Agriculture Minister Ravi Naik said. But in reality Goans face serious water scarcity issues with water blatantly wasted by PWD while Ravi talks on importing Goa’s water.

Media questioned Ravi on water management with people complaining due the scarcity of water in Goa. However, Ravi replied Goa gets more than 120 inches of rain. The rain water directly goes into the sea. If dams are constructed in Goa this water could be stored and imported to other countries.
