Goa CM lays foundation stone for 1st phase of beautification of Martyrs' Memorial

Panaji, Aug 15 (UNI) Goa Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar today laid the foundation stone for first phase of beautification of the martyrs’ memorial.
Speaking at a function held to mark 70th Independence Day at Patradevi in Pernem taluka, around 55 km from here, the Chief Minister said, ''Our country entered in its 70th year of independence whereas Goa was liberated from the Portuguese yoke fourteen years later but is successfully marching towards all-round development. It was possible due to sacrifice of our freedom fighters.''
Stating that the state was making rapid strides in various fields of human development like education, industry, health, sports and infrastructure after the liberation, Mr Parsekar said the government accorded priority to the welfare of the common man and therefore had implemented several welfare schemes.
