The Bicholim river in Goa is likely to be dredged, two years after a proposal was submitted. This development is expected to bring relief to the local community.
The Bicholim river, which has been facing issues with siltation, is finally set to undergo dredging. The proposal for the dredging was submitted two years ago, and now the project is likely to move forward. The dredging of the river will help to improve the water flow and prevent flooding in the surrounding areas. This development is a significant step towards addressing the environmental concerns of the region.
