I wish to draw the attention of this House to the deep fear and anxiety that the  IRB constables in Goa face due to prolonged career stagnation

Following the creation of a common cadre by merging the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd IRB battalions, many constables now face the prospect of retiring in the same rank, which is highly demoralising.

Sir, these IRB constables are already working in core Goa Police units—police stations, traffic, coastal security, ATS, cyber crime, crime branch and security units. At a time when there is an acute shortage of police staff trained IRB personnel are available and willing to serve-

The Government has earlier allowed Home Guards to be absorbed into the Goa Police, a progressive decision which has given positive results
I urge Hon CM and the Home Department to seriously consider merger or absorption of eligible and willing IRB constables into the Goa Police, in the interest of justice, public safety and also as a boost to their morale.
-

Fear, anxiety, and anger among  people of Vasco arising from the non-cooperative attitude of the MPA regarding removal of the gate erected on the main road, causing serious obstruction to the movement of vehicles making it an accident prone zone, despite a clear and written directive issued by the Collector of South Goa ordering the immediate removal of the said gate. The defiance of this lawful order by MPA reflects an arrogant and dismissive attitude towards local administration, which is unacceptable and undermines the authority of the government machinery.

I urge the Government to intervene before public frustration escalates further and the situation goes out of control. 
The concerns of the people of Vasco must be addressed without delay in the interest of public order and safety.

I would like to bring to the attention of this house the serious issue of dilapidated buildings in our port town, which pose a significant threat to public safety.
Several of these structures, both occupied and unoccupied, some owned by the MMC are on the verge of collapse. We\'ve already seen portions of slabs falling, which creates a major danger. Many of these buildings are in the city center, where thousands of people pass by daily.
Since the owners have failed to act and are least bothered to protect their properties, I urge the state administration to intervene immediately. These buildings must be taken over and demolished as a matter of priority to protect the public.
I kindly request the Hon\'ble Chief Minister to address this urgent matter.
