Ganv Ghor Rakhonn Manch

GANV GHOR RAKHONN MANCH (GGRM)
is a growing collective of the determined citizens of Cavelossim, Carmona, Orlim, Varca, Benaulim, Colva, Betalbatim, Majorda

and all villages of Goa who are fighting
MEGA-PROJECTS, MINING, SEZs
& attacks on the lives, livelihoods & environment of Goan villages.
The GGRM seeks to connect the solidarity with all peoples' movements in Goan villages
against GREED-based development
and seeks to empower the Gram Sabhas to
create NEED-based planning
taking inspiration from the Village Development Plan by the people of Chandor.
The GGRM will function as a grassroots collective. Decisions on local issues will be done by the village groups themselves and the solidarity will take up common issues.
