Eco-Conservation
The Goa government has officially notified 4 lakh square metres of ecologically sensitive land around Old Goa and St Cruz village as "no development zones."
The Town and Country Planning (TCP) Board enacted the ban to preserve a major UNESCO World Heritage site and a vital mangrove patch. Out of this, 102,000 square metres strictly surround Old Goa’s protected heritage precinct, including local orchards and an archaeological park.
The decisive eco-move completely bans any future commercial construction or real estate development activity in these highly sensitive land parcels.
