Vasco: Villagers of Cansaulim, Arossim and Cuelim passed a resolution at
a gram sabha on Sunday rejecting the proposed airport at Mopa and
initialed the resolution with their thumbprint in blood.
Marconi Correia, a villager, said, "Goa is not America where there are millionaires every 1km and airports are required every 10km." Members endorsed the view that a single, centrally-located Dabolim airport is enough. They said that they have signed the resolution in blood as ordinary signatures have no effect on their elected representatives. Correia also recollected the words of former environment minister late Mahtany Saldanha who had said that, "those who are pursuing Mopa airport are insincere".
