The South Goa Planning and Development Authority Chairman Wilfred D’Sa on Tuesday announced that the wholesale fish market will open on August 1. While replying to the allegations made by former Nuvem MLA Mickky Pacheco, the chairman said, “I have not been informed to open or close the market. I know what to do and when to open the market. Some persons have gone to the High Court against the requirements that have been published by the SGPDA to conduct business at the market. “People are worried to eat fish due to the Formalin scare. We will wait for the High Court decision, said the Nuvem MLA. “Pacheco wants us to allow the Formalin fish to sell into the market and that is why he is suggesting a different time and not considering ours. We want to allow the Goan fishermen to sell fish which is safe for consumption, he added.
