The very tragic circumstances in which our Candolim brother Joy Fernandes and his two dear children departed is so very heart- breaking. Extremely sad and unfortunate indeed. Joy was known to be a very affable person always ready to help those in need. He was a kind and gentle soul who was very active in […]

BUREAUCRATS IN GOA HAVE SURRENDERED TO THE POLITICAL EMPERORS
Appeals under various Acts including Municipalities, Panchayat, Excise and others are heard by officers seating at the Secretariat in Porvorim. But with the entire bureaucracy led by the Chief Secretary having surrendered to the political class, it would be in the interest of justice that these appeals be decided by a judicial authority. It is […]
THE CORRUPTION IN WASTE MANAGEMENT STINKS
Chief Minister Pramod Sawant has finally publicly acknowledged that there is rampant corruption in Waste Management. But why did it take the Chief Minister so long to realise something that was known to all. We need to know what action the government plans to take to crack this corruption. Over the years successive governments have […]
GOA’S ROADS – A CURRENT DISASTER
Unless there is a sustained people’s movement in Goa to demand good and durable roads, the perennial potholes will never vanish. It is high time Chief Minister Pramod Sawant and PWD Minister Nilesh Cabral realize and come to terms on the need for good roads. They should be advised that a Good Road is one […]
REVENGE AND RETRIBUTION BY THOSE IN POWER IS NOW THE ORDER OF THE DAY
Politicians in Power by virtue of their positions must be always ready for both bouquets and brickbats. But today’s ruling political tribe is intolerant to any criticism. They are hypersensitive and lack the spine to deal with even positive brickbats but are ready to stoop to any level to accept cheap artificial bouquets. Those in […]
WHO IS THAT POWERFUL GHOST IN THE CM’S OFFICE?
The Goa Government ought to make public the complete details of that extra-constitutional authority that has been managing and virtually running the Chief Minister’s office since July 2020. The mysterious Dr. Ms Pratibha from Maharashtra, a very low profile hand picked RSS nominee, a social scientist with PhD from RSS supported Govt funded Deendayal Research […]
GOA GOVERNOR MUST RISE ON MHADEI
There have been blatant lies and sheer deceit by the BJP in hoodwinking Goa and Goans on Mhadei. The Central and State Government are both responsible for having fooled Goans on this very crucial Mhadei issue. It was a very big blow to our State on New Year’s Eve. Our fight on Mhadei has to be […]
IS IT DOUBLE STANDARDS AND HYPOCRISY BY THE RSS?
The BJP has close ideological and organisational links with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) which has been at least officially concerned about the moral bankruptcy while sounding the alarm against all wrong social tendencies. So with the RSS Supremo Mohan Bhagwat now in Goa for his conclave he should be able to shed light on […]
WILL WE EVER SEE GOOD AND DURABLE ROADS?
During his recent visit to Goa Union Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari made two very tall promises. That roads in India within two years would be better than the United States and that the viewing gallery at the Zuari Bridge would be better than that at Eiffel Tower in Paris. The proof of the pudding is […]
GOA AND GOANS TAKEN FOR A RIDE ON MHADEI
That Goa and Goans have been fooled on the very crucial Mhadei issue comes as no surprise. The expected politrik has dawned. In this political chicanery, for the BJP its party’s interests in Karnataka has overridden Goa’s welfare. It is absolutely shameful to witness the manner in which the Central Government has in an utterly […]
