Matka has its wings long drawn across Goa with prominent politicians and even some MLAs being kingpins. The trade has now spread its tentacles in many countries overseas. It is definitely a lesser evil than the lethal drug menace and the now flourishing sex trade or even the illegalities that the Goa government has been […]

NEXUS BETWEEN POLITICIANS AND CRIMINALS NEEDS TO BE ROOTED OUT
The rising Crime in the State of Goa is a matter of concern. No fear of the law is a reason why the state of Goa is moving towards lawlessness. These crime levels will only proliferate unless the nexus between politicians and criminals is uprooted. It is common to see politicians moving around with shady […]
SATYA PAL MALIK WOULD HAVE STEERED GOA OUT OF CORRUPTION
Our former Governor Satya Pal Malik was very concerned about the rampant corruption and bad governance in Goa. Infact he had written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah giving those details of the omissions and commissions by the BJP Government here. But instead of acting against the accused, the Governor was […]
THE POLITICAL TURF MUST BE FREED OF NEPOTISM
Across the nation and within all political parties the malaise of family Raj seems to be widespread. While in the Opposition, the BJP had always vehemently spoken out against dynasty rule while claiming to be a party with a difference. All that tall talk is now history and they too have joined the mainstream in […]
PULLING WOOL OVER EYES OF G20 DELEGATES IS HYPOCRITICAL
Goa Government has hastily decked up entire route through which the G-20 delegates will be passing by. Eyesore spots that were unable to be spruced up have been covered with metal sheets or green cloth. Isn’t it amusing that government has also covered Casino advertisements on all the police barricades with white plastic? What are […]
LUIZINHO FALEIRO SCORES A POLITICAL OWN GOAL
In the run up to the 2022 Goa Assembly elections, a politically fossilized Luizinho Faleiro had in utter bad taste released verbal secretions while reportedly selfishly scheming for himself a retirement nest by way of a Rajya Sabha berth courtesy of his newfound abode, the Trinamool Congress. Luizinho Faleiro chose to secure a new dawn […]
GREEDY POLITICIANS WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED
It is about time that we have a retirement age for politicians so that geriatric senile faces are rested to enable them to spend their retirement babysitting their grandchildren. This will make the much needed room to infuse young experienced and talented blood into the political mainstream which currently is in dire straits. Politics has […]
WITH DEMOCRACY AND SECULARISM IN PERIL DR AMBEDKAR MUST BE GRIEVING
As we pay homage to our very adored Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, the Father of our Indian Constitution on his birth Anniversary, we need to be reminded that Dr Ambedkar who was a symbol of knowledge must never have visualized that thick skinned persons with never ending greed for Power and Wealth would ever be […]
GOOD POLICING IS THE BEST CRIME DETERRENT
The Old Goa Police led by Inspector Satish Padwalkar must be commended for swiftly cracking that Merces hit-and-run case which snuffed away the life of a 39 year old on the early morning of 8th April. The accused who has now been nabbed is a Navy staff member who was gambling his luck at a […]
DEFACEMENT OF PROPERTY BY POLITICAL PARTIES MUST END
We have been watching with dismay the political parties in rank contravention of all merrily defacing property by painting on walls across Goa while the authorities conveniently look the other way clearly abdicating their responsibility of enforcing the law. All these paintings on the walls are an offence under the Goa Prevention of Defacement of […]
