One is whether the land acquired by the Margao Municipal Council admeasuring 30,000 square meters on the Sonsodo hillock, just above the existing Catholic cemetery, is feasible for the proposed kabrastan given the steep gradient of the land in question. And, whether the burial ground can come up on the alternate site identified by the Margao Municipality and the PDA around the Khareband-Sirvodem locality, running parallel to the river Sal, when a portion of the identified land falls in the adjoining Navelim village.
The kabrastan, however, never saw the light of the day at Sonsodo, more so after questions were initially raised about whether a burial ground can come up on a hillock with a steep gradient. Attempt to build the burial ground at Sonsodo later ran into rough weather around 2016 after strong protests by the residents of Borda, opposing the burial grounds close to the existing cemetery. The zone of the acquired land has since been changed to a special zone.
The proposal to shift the kabrastan site from Sonsodo to the Khareband-Sirvodem area was mooted in 2017 by the Margao Municipal Council. The then BJP government had sanctioned a grant of Rs 15 crore for land acquisition at Sirvodem for the proposed kabrastan, but the burial ground did not see the light of the day after objections from the local populace.
MARGAO: The long-pending kabrastan (graveyard) issue of Margao took a new turn on Thursday after Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant and Deputy Chief Minister Babu Azgaonkar assured to revoke the decision of change in the zone at Sonsoddo area allotted for Kabrastan and build the graveyard at the same location.
During the Covid pandemic, many families had alleged that kabrastan officials were charging Rs 25,000-Rs 30,000 for single burial space, according to the former trust members. Families usually pay nominal charges, including those to gravediggers, they said.
