It is an anguishing irony that the cash strapped Goa Government has sanctioned a whopping 10 crores to set up a Manohar Parrikar School of Law at the Goa University. All through his political career Manohar Parrikar displayed absolute scant respect for the law of the land. He was an epitome of utter Lawlessness. He […]

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE MUST PREVAIL
The local residents having unanimously opposed the Nauxim Marina Project it was incumbent on Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to forthwith scrap that venture instead of hoodwinking the people by merely postponing the public hearing. On issues that concern the society, the government should bow to the wishes and aspirations of the people by taking sensible […]
BJP IS NOW A SAFE ABODE FOR THE TAINTED
While the BJP Vice-President Uma Bharti raised an uproar about her party doing business with the tainted former Haryana Minister Gopal Kanda, maybe she lost sight that the BJP in Goa has embraced galore by inducting into the party those criminally stained to the hilt.

THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE INDIAN JUDICIARY IN PERIL
In a very retrograde and questionable move the Supreme Court so abruptly and without prior notice or warning has suddenly stopped uploading the resolutions of its collegium recommending High Court and Supreme Court judges for appointment and transfers. From October 2017, the resolutions put up on the Supreme Court website gave brief details on the […]
OUR GOA IS SINKING BY THE DAY
It was very highly inappropriate and so high-handed on the part of Union Railway Minister Piyush Goyal of having accused the NGO’s in Goa of obstructing government work. Infact in the current hazy political scenario in our State, the role and vigilance by civil society becomes all the more necessary and vital. Had it not been […]
A STINKING PANAJI MLA AND HIS SEWAGE ALL OVER
