Goa's leader of opposition, Digambar Kamat, has issued a public message on the occasion of International Women's day.
In his greetings, the Congress party politician stated, "river Mhadei is the lifeline for every Goan and it is the duty of each one of us to take a pledge on this Women's Day to protect our mother. Let us all unite to stop any attempt by anyone to take away River Mhadei from us."
"Women are creators and Mhadei is a creator as well. The nature of Goa exists only because of mother Mhadei," he continued.
He then urged all the women to come "forward to preserve and save the identity of Goa," as the fairer sex has always managed to thrive in times of grave crisis.
"Today a situation has come wherein it is the need of the hour for women to show courage and come out to fight against the challenges which have emerged before us," said Kamat.
