In Goa over the years crores of rupees have been poured on the so called e-Governance but the desired results have not been achieved. Most of the Government websites are non-functional or not updated.

TOWARDS GOOD GOVERNANCE IN GOA
There is a need to ensure that in every government office in our tiny State all the staff from the Peon to the Director is very and extremely punctual in reporting for work. Even in the Secretariat at Porvorim we very sadly see staff merrily walking in past 10.30 if not later. This is impermissible and our […]
MAY OUR NOW SINKING GOA BE SAVED FROM ALSO OFFICIALY BEING BRANDED AS A RAPE DESTINATION
It is seven long years that our Vasco 7 year old little girl was mercilessly raped in broad day light in the toilet of her Deep Vihar School run by the Mormugao Port Trust where she was studying in the second standard. While the little girl and her grief stricken parents relentlessly quest for justice, the alleged rapist and his accomplices are […]
BABUSH MONSERATTE CANNOT GET AWAY WITH THAT FAKE PROMISE
Election promises cannot be like China made goods, without a warranty or guarantee. In May last year during that by-election campaign to the Panaji Assembly Constituency Babush Monseratte had solemnly assured the voters of Panaji that he would ensure that all the Casinos in the River Mandovi would be removed within 100 days of he being elected. Having […]

MY GOA IS SINKING BY THE DAY DOWN THE DRAIN
It is so very anguishing that our Goa today on the issue of Law and Order is in absolute dire straits. The much required law and order seems to have totally collapsed in our once very orderly State, with even an Uttar Pradesh native having landed in Goa claiming illegally to be a Minister there […]
IS THE CHIEF MINISTER ABOVE THE LAW?
Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on 26th September last year filed a very controversial application before the Bicholim Mamlatdar claiming to be a Mundkar in Survey No. 60/8 at Cotombi village. While that application by Pramod Sawant seeking declaration as Mundkar under Section 8A of the Goa Mundkar Act 1975 is still pending before the Mamlatdar, […]
