Amendments that brought the true intention towards comunidade lands were not a part of the bill that was cleared by the cabinet at the last moment giving little time for study or debate; seeking to amend Clause 6, Gaonkar said landless children of components of the respective Comunidades who have attained the age of 18 be included; also sought to increase the scope of government on community lands by inserting the word ‘Government institutions’ after ‘Government undertakings’
Senior Attorneys are clear that Gauncars will never allow traditional community lands from being taken over completely by the government; want govt to clarify whether the amendments are a backdoor entry for shareholders to claim the Comunidade land on par with Gauncars; components to meet the Governor and request him to withhold all such bills passed against the Code of Comunidades
