Ministers Reply“Fear and Anxiety in the minds of the people of Goa with regard to road access to their houses. There are thousands of houses in Goa which do not have motorable road access and instead use the traditional (kaccha) road access through private property. The survey department failed to show access to many properties on the survey maps. This has resulted in an increase in conflict in the villages where landlords have been blocking road access to the affected people's homes by constructing compound walls. As a result, it is almost impossible for emergency services to access such houses in case of an accident or weather-related disaster. The steps the Government has taken to initiate a State-wide exercise to identify such landlocked properties and modify the survey maps to reflect existing access to such plots”.
