SANGUEM: The “Enough is Enough” movement has issued a 15-day ultimatum to the authorities to reconvene the prorogued Assembly session and take up the pending Consolidated Land Bill, warning of a massive march to Panaji if no action is taken.Addressing a public meeting in Sanguem, former judge Ferdino Rebello urged the Governor Pusapati Ashok Gajapathi Raju to take the lead in reconvening the Assembly to address concerns over large-scale conversion of agricultural and green lands.He pointed out that the budget session, initially scheduled from March 6 to 27, was cut short on March 16 following the announcement of the Ponda by-election. However, after the Bombay High Court at Goa later cancelled the bypoll, he stressed that there is now scope to reconvene the session and address the issue.Rebello warned that failure to pass the Land Bill could lead to public backlash, even suggesting voters may reject current representatives in the next Assembly elections. He also called on citizens to gather in large numbers at Azad Maidan, Panaji, if the government fails to act.The meeting saw participation from several activists and local representatives, highlighting growing public concern over environmental degradation and land-use changes in Goa.
