I thank MOEFCC Minister Dave for amending the CRZ notification, he tweeted through is personal tweeter account @manoharparrikar, this morning. The Chief Minister’s Office too used the social media in thanking the Union Ministry. Now shack owners need not dismantle and rebuild their structures every season, as MOEFCC accedes to Goa’s request to amend CRZ notification, the CMO office tweeted. The Union Ministry has carried out further amendments to the CRZ notification, 2011 to this effect, but a pre-condition is that the shacks remain non-operational during that period. Following several complaints from the shack operators that erecting and dismantling shacks every season is not economical and it affects their business dealings, the then BJP government had approached Centre for necessary relaxation. Accordingly, the Union Minister in April, last year had issued draft notification i M n this regard. The shack owners have welcomed the decision.
