In addition, TMC will operationalize pro-people legislations like The Goa Daman and Diu Agricultural Tenancy Act, 1964 and The Goa Daman and Diu Mundkars (Protection from eviction) Act, 1975 on the ground and take the cause further.
It is time to bring an era of pro-people legislation which seeks to protect the lives and livelihoods of Goenkars, the note added.
