What Goa is witnessing is a Jamboree of blatant political prostitution sponsored by the now cash rich and power intoxicated BJP. Even those in the world’s oldest profession do it better. That the ever oscillating power starved foxy Vishwajit Rane joining the bandwagon of these political pimps comes as no surprise. Vijai, Jayesh, Vinod and […]

AN OPEN LETTER TO VIJAI SARDESAI
13th March 2017 Dear Vijai, I write this with a heavy heart, a very heavy heart indeed!

Two very Senior Advocates from Delhi I spoke to today have described as most weirdest, erroneous and unsound the legal opinion given by the flamboyant Attorney General of India Mukul Rohatgi that the Supreme Court order banning sale of liquor within 500 metres of state and national highways would not apply to bars and restaurants […]
JUSTICE P.K.MISRA – A JUDGE WHO WALKS THE TALK
Greg Olsen had very aptly said ‘Change happens through example and not through just talking about it’. And this is exactly what Justice (Retd) Prafulla Kumar Misra has done, right from the day he took over as Lokayukta of Goa on April 28th last year. While leading an exemplary life with the utmost form of ethical conduct, Justice Misra has kept […]
