Following the order of the Goa High Court, around 22 houses of Kannadigas built on community land in Sangolda in North Goa were demolished. These families had threatened to boycott the Lok Sabha elections if the government failed to console them.
Reacting to the incident, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said, “Deeply concerned by the demolition of houses of Kannadigas in Sangolda, Goa. I appeal to Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to immediately stop further demolitions until alternatives are available and ensure that all displaced persons get adequate rehabilitation. It is important that we maintain the dignity and stability of each affected family.”
RGP supremo Manoj Parab, who is fighting against illegal encroachment of Komunidad land by migrants, attacked Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, saying, “Please send your KSRTC buses to Goa and remove all those Kannadigas who have illegally encroached on our land. Have taken and are involved in illegal activities. Please give them a rehabilitation package in Karnataka under your government.”
“There are lakhs of Goans who are not able to buy a piece of land in Goa because lakhs of Kannadigas have encroached upon our community land and created their vote bank. Will your government ask them to vacate our land which is under illegal occupation,” said Parab.
Over the years, the RGP forced the authorities to cancel about twenty-five thousand election cards of migrants who also had election cards at their place of origin.
Most of them are from Karnataka.
