the use of
Goemkar Ghor
, which houses
Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai
’s office for vaccination drives. GFP president
Vijai Sardesai
wrote to chief minister Pramod Sawant and said that the offer should not be seen in a “political context but as an offer to help Goans”.
Sardesai also said that he is pained to see Goans suffer due to the “lack of management and misplaced priorities” and has called on the state government to take steps to control the spread of the novel coronavirus in Goa.
“That is why I am opening the doors of our premises, Goemkar Ghor to the Goa government to vaccinate all eligible Goemkars over the age of 18, as an effort to save Goa now from Covid-19. We have allocated space available in our premises to accommodate and operate a vaccine centre for all Goemkars,” he said.
GFP said that Goa needs a Covid-19 command and control centre that supports the state-wide public and private medical operators, and also informs people about availability of beds, locations of vaccinations centers as well as oxygen supply.
