Faulty sound system leaves scribes in the cold in Goa Assembly

Complaints to the speaker regarding the same proved to be of no avail. However, the Speaker only informed the scribes that the payments of the concerned contractor would be withheld if the fault was not set right soon and requested them to bear with the situation.

On the way back to the press-room, scribes met leader of the opposition Ravi Naik, who informed them that Congress MLAs were agitating on the issue of effecting the arrest of all anti-social elements, including Nandan Kudchadkar, a close-friend of the chief minister, and known to be involved in the Kavlem hut demolition case.

This was also confirmed by the Speaker, who said the opposition was demanding and agitating that the car of another accused Roy Fernandes, be attached by the police. When asked why he had left the House abruptly, the Speaker informed that he had adjourned the house for half-an-hour.
