There are three infrastructure projects that threaten the forests in and around Mollem National Park and Bhagvan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary. In the middle of the lock-down the National Board for Wildlife cleared or discussed more than 30 forest clearance proposals. Of these 2 projects from Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary/Mollem National Park, Goa were cleared virtually by the National Board for Wildlife.

What are the three projects?
1. Double tracking the railway line
2. Four-lane highway expansion
3. Laying a 400kv transmission line

To put it in perspective, the amount of land that will be cleared by all three projects (250.3 ha) is roughly 370 times the area of Fatorda’s Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium.
