		Their planners have forgotten the main pain and agony of the important river and now they are out to divert the very lifeline of Goa-the Mahadei or the Mandovi, and consign Goa to a similar fate.
		The Mandovi is a navigable river since ancient times and the Kadamba rulers used this river efficiently for navigation, and even today the mining industry uses this river to transport iron ore right from Sanvordem to Marmagoa Harbour, to export it to other countries and earn valuable foreign exchange.
		The pre-historic main dwelt in the river basin of the Mandovi.
