Dilip Parulekar, Minister of Tourism, Government of Goa, said, “The present arrangement with Drishti to lift garbage is a temporary one and it will remain in force, until a new agency is selected.”
The government has set a deadline of three months to engage a new contractor, after completing the tendering process. In the new tender, the scope of work is reduced, and the contractor’s role will be limited to collecting waste and transporting it to Saligao treatment plant, besides installing waste bins on beaches. The element of mechanised cleaning won’t be part of the contract as an attempt to engage in mechanised means was well received in the past.
