Minister joins stir against Mopa airport

Special Correspondent

PANAJI: The agitation against the proposed Mopa airport, led by Churchill Alemao, MP from South Goa, got a major boost with Minister for Water Resources Filipe Neri Rodrigues joining the bandwagon.

Mr. Rodrigues, an Independent MLA from Velim in South Goa and a Minister in the Congress-led coalition, shared the platform of "Save Dabolim Airport Committee" in South Goa on Monday.

Mr. Rodrigues told The Hindu that he has joined the anti-Mopa agitation, and is fully in favour of expansion and upgradation of the Dabolim airport for optimal civilian use. Mr. Alemao has been going ahead with his agitation bringing embarrassment to the Congress.
