Will Goa’s Chief Minister Pramod Sawant please confess to the people of Goa as to why and how in rank impropriety he is allowing his chum Manoj Patil to access official files and has even allowed him to participate in official meetings in rank violation of established protocol? When the Chief Minister has promised Zero […]

NEED FOR SANITY ON THE POLITICAL TURF
It is obnoxious that the Power intoxicated and cash rich BJP is pouring crores to marginalize the political opposition even in the States ruled by them. Their now botched attempt to frantically split the 11 member Congress MLAs was not in consonance with our Parliamentary democracy. To attempt to neutralize any opposition so ruthlessly and […]
A RIDICULOUS COMPARISON
It is absolutely foolish and irrational for the Government to have had the nerve to compare Taj Mahal with our Goa’s Kala Academy (KA). Nothing could be more outrageous, laughable or further from the Truth! The whole world knows that the former was built during a monarchy. The King who called himself “Ruler of the […]
OFFICIALS SHOULD PROMOTE TOURISM NOT BECOME TOURISTS
The Government’s decision to promote Goa as a Tourist destination in China, Australia, Canada, Italy and South Korea is another misconceived waste of public funds. It will only be a free junket for the Tourism Minister and his entourage only further burdening our already empty State coffers. The Government over the last many years has […]
SIT PROBE MUST ENSURE CRIME DOES NOT PAY
The Special Investigation Team (SIT) which is currently probing the rampant fraudulent land grabbing that has been going on in Goa must be allowed to function free of political interference. But with at least two current Ministers, some ruling party MLAs, and BJP leaders too all being part of the mafia of land grabbers it would require a […]
PANAJI ROADS ARE PAVED TO HELL
The state of the roads in and around Goa’s capital city with the flooding that is witnessed is horrifying. If sincere curative measures are not taken, in the years to come we would have to travel across the city on motor boats with driving licenses issued by the Captain of Ports. Experts have for years […]
TIME TO PONDER ON RISING DEATHS
The BJP instead of trying to rewrite India’s history and even fiddling with the very foundation of our Constitution would be well advised to put the peoples’ welfare first by getting scientists to examine why so many people are dying, and some of them so very young. Is it a combination of the poor quality […]
GOA’S PROPERTY MYSTERY 
Before having an eye on anonymous properties, Chief Minister Pramod Sawant should first ask the authorities to ensure that Government land is not encroached or grabbed. Does the government even have an inventory of all land it owns? Creating such a comprehensive inventory should be a priority as government assets need to be secure and […]
PUBLIC WASTE DEPARTMENT (PWD) MUST GET ITS ACT TOGETHER
With the roads across Goa in a perilous state with potholes galore, it was in poor taste that PWD Minister Nilesh Cabral chose to celebrate his Birthday. It should have been a day when Minister Cabral should have pondered and reflected on how the PWD is now actually a Public Waste Department and a Personal […]
GOA GOVERNMENT GETS A DOUBLE SLAP FROM THE JUDICIARY
The Pramod Sawant Government has deviously made an utter mockery of the entire election process for these Panchayat elections. The High Court and later the Supreme Court has seen through the deceitful agenda of this government and has rightly cracked the whip to reinforce the message that enough is enough! By such cheap politriks in […]
