Pernem Police Quarters in Dilapidated State; Locals Demand Redevelopment

Residents seek demolition of abandoned structures or use of land for housing project The residential quarters behind Pernem Police Station are reportedly in a neglected and dilapidated condition, with several structures lying abandoned and overgrown. Locals say the area has become unsafe and poorly maintained, raising concerns over both security and appearance. Residents are now demanding that the unusable buildings be demolished and replaced with modern police housing, or alternatively, that the land be used for an affordable housing project under schemes like “Mhojo Flat” for economically weaker sections.
