		THE Pernem taluka heaved a sigh of relief on the completion of the Colvale bridge on National Highway 17 and the Konkan Railway's Pernem station.
		The opening of the second bridge over the Chapora river is a boon not only for the people of Goa's northernmost taluka of Pernem, but also to Bardez taluka and Sindudurgh district of Maharashtra, between which it remains sandwiched.
		With everything seemingly faring fine for Pernem now, including two of its three legislators belonging to the BJP-led coalition, the State government deemed it proper to propose to convert the entire Pernem taluka into a Special Economic Zone, focused either on Information Technology sector or Tourism-related services.
