Fisheries play an important role in Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant’s Swayampurna Goa initiative. As such, infrastructure enhancement and cooperative push hold the key towards the broader goal.
The Chief Minister inaugurated the Coutband Fisheries Co-operative Society at Velim in the presence of Fisheries Minister Nilkant Halarnkar; Law & Environment Minister Aleixo Sequeira among others.
“I congratulate all the fisherman, allied professionals who have come together to form the society. The Union Cooperation Ministry is set to roll out new comprehensive Cooperation Policy and the Goa state government is always committed to extend support for the Cooperative movement in the state in various sectors. I am sure the Coutband Co-op society shall strengthen the Fisheries activities, business in the region and contribute to our vision of Swayampurna Goa,” asserted Dr Sawant.
