In 1 year, Goa diverted near 150 hectare forest land for power projects
The country’s tiniest state with an area of 3,702 sqkm has diverted nearly 150 hectare of forest land, rich in biodiversity and home to many endemic animals and plants, for power projects last year—the third highest just behind Arunachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, which are 23- and 66-times Goa’s size, respectively.
