On Saturday 4th February, we had a meeting cum get-together at Mrs. Judy Mendonca's place. Mr. Glen Galstaun, our M.L.A. (accompanied by Mr. Surendra Nath Pandey) was with us to discuss issues to work on in the near future.
Mr. Galstaun listened to all that was said and asked by them who were present.
Medical, borewells, electricity, roads, education and cemetery boundary walls were among the issues discussed.
Among the members present there, there were; Mrs. Kathleen Hourigan, Mr. Dennis Meredith, Mr. Harold Mendies, Mr. John Hourigan, Mr. Christopher D'Costa and daughter Crystal, Mr. Ivan Barrette, Mrs. Debbie Barrette, Mrs. Kitty, Mr. Jeffery Mendies, Mr. Kenneth Jennings, Mr. Clayton Gomes, Mrs. Brenda Gomes, and my wife Charmaine Hourigan and myself.
The thana prabhaari was also present and took a list of the names and positions of active members of the association, McCluskiegunj branch.
Mr. Galstaun has done a lot for the Anglos here. He has given bore wells and roads to many residents. He is seeing to a tuberculous patient's medical expense and much more.
I am personally grateful to Mr. Galstaun for providing me a deep bore, submersible pump, piping, storage tank (1000 Ltrs.) at the small plot of land that means a lot to me, free of my cost too.
