The Goa Cabinet today decided to re-open till December this year the scheme for one-time settlement of loans taken by people for mining-related purposes. The scheme has been reopened but will not entertain any new applications, Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar told mediapersons after the Cabinet meeting.
“Due to some reasons, like end of scheme period and technical issues, there were applications which were not considered on time or were rejected. Such applications will now be considered under the scheme,” Parrikar said.
