ADVOCATE GENERAL ATMARAM NADKARNI MUST GO

 

By Aires Rodrigues

Despite a week having elapsed since that infamous Supreme Court judgement on the NEET issue pertaining to the post graduate students at the Goa Medical College, the Advocate General of Goa Atmaram Nadkarni has yet not put in his papers.

Such heavy and loaded language in which the Goa Government has been rigorously castigated and rightly ridiculed has never been heard of. The Supreme Court appropriately cracked the whip on a government that had intentionally gone berserk and insane on the NEET issue. 

Any other Advocate General with any self respect would have taken the high moral ground and swiftly stepped aside. But Atmaram Nadkarni, India’s highest paid Advocate General who otherwise publicly professes to be very spiritual and a believer in Karma, seems to be infact very thick skinned. It is not surprising that the colour of the eyes can say it all. That he is reportedly clandestinely aspiring a direct elevation as Judge of the Supreme Court is a matter of great concern. It would be the darkest day for India’s Judiciary.

On the NEET issue Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar’s silence is also deafening. The innocent students have had to unnecessarily go through the trauma and incur huge financial burden to knock the doors of the Supreme Court for justice. The Goa Government should have at least had the courtesy of publicly apologizing to those brave students and their families. And this government which is now known for dishing out financial packages to all and sundry should come up with some financial assistance to the NEET affected.  Is this the Government which the people voted for a Parivartan? Can there be a certificate of anyone better than the Honourable Supreme Court?

Money is not everything in life, Mr. Atmaram Nadkarni. Time to step aside. Else the rolling dice may soon catch up. The sooner the better. We cannot allow temples of justice ending up as dens of chicanery and jugglery

NEW DVD IN KUWAIT ON TRADITIONAL "ZOMNIVOILO KHELL".

One more new DVD is on sale in Kuwait city which I purchased and just completed in watching it.  This is of Anthony de Colva comprising 3 small Plays known as “Karnavalachea Zomnivelea Khellancheo Tin Partio”. These three Skits are: (1) KONNAKUCH NAKA (2) MAKA INAM MEULO and (3) MOZO KHELL POLLOIAT ANI MAKA DUDDU DIAT.  They are all written, directed and presented by Anthony de Colva who is seen standing in Suit in the cover photo while on left top seen in the cover photo are Songs composer Patrick Dourado and Osvi Viegas  who has composed and arranged the music.

This DVD is worth seeing because its contents are good.  Comedy performed by both the comedians Peter de Macazana and Comedian Rumaldo is good, lyrics are excellent and they all rendered excellently by all the singers supported from behind the scene by the melodious singer Osvi as “Segundo”.  Osvi’s beautiful voice as second brought extra beauty for all the songs and his voice is partly responsible to give a booster for this DVD.

The two young beautiful ladies Dolla Miranda and Lavina played their roles very beautifully and while singing they both were graceful especially Lavina who with her attractive looks captured the minds and hearts of the audience. She showed lot of serenity in her beautiful voice.  Tough they both are not professional Stage artistes yet they proved to be much better than the professionals. The director also deserved credit for training them well.

Anthony de Colva palyed captains inning very well in the Skits as well as in songs.  He got a very stable voice.

The Musicians also played their role well.

Though it is a “Zomnivoilo Khell” played on the ground as per the tradition yet songs lacked the traditional tunes normally used for such “Khells”.  And without Clarinet as one of the musical instruments, this “Khell” lacked the normal punch associated with such “Khells’. Clarinet gives beauty to such "Khells".

It is well depicted with a very good traditional scene where the beautiful performance performed by all the artistes in a traditional manner.

Kudos to Anthony de Colva, Osvi Viegas, Patrick Dourado and everyone who participated in this “ZOMNIVOILO KHELL”.

PRAY FOR THE SUCCESS OF AMERICAN STRIKE ON SYRIA.

It is now certain that that the world consensus has been formed to punish Syria for using Chemical weapons against its own people and by punishing thus to prevent Syria and for that matter any other rogue country from using Chemical weapons against any human beings. 

American President Obama is all ready to give a green signal to his Military personnel who are experts in this field to strike Syria at its military installations. Russia will have no important role to play against American strike because Russia has already shown signs of its inefficiency to silence America while Iran will be totally impotent to face American might on battlefield. Russia and Iran both are paper Tigers unable to fight the might of America.

While the preparedness to strike Syria is in full swing, some fake prophets are preaching their doctrine that American strike is against the religion. Which is that religion?  Is it a Syrian religion that allows the use of Chemical weapons against its own citizens? Which religion permits killing of innocent people and that too by using Chemical weapons?

Even during the war for the liberation of Kuwait waged against Iraq by the West headed by America, some Islamist philosophers and other coreligionists said it was wrong to allow America to fight this war because God does not permit wars.  Still America went ahead, fought the bloody war with its allies against Iraq and finally liberated Kuwait otherwise till today Kuwait would be still in the hands of Iraq as its 19^th province named by Saddam Hussein as “Khadeema”. 

It is ironic that the fake prophets’ God allows gassing the human beings with Chemical weapons and invading the sovereign countries but forbid the war to liberate the invaded countries and forbid striking the brute regime using the Chemical weapons.

In the Biblical Book of Joshua, we read how Prophet Joshua invoked the name of God and asked God’s help to fight his battle against his enemies the Philistines and finally he won the battle.  To help Prophet Joshua to fight his battle against his enemies, God miraculously kept the Sun and the entire Stellar system intact without moving an inch for 24 long hours till Joshua with the help of Sunlight won his battle.

In view of this, it is our duty as the lovers and sympathisers of the Syrian victims of Assad’s Chemical weapons, to pray for the success of American strike on Syria that is responsible for using Chemical weapons against innocent Syrians.

If God wants He can do miracles and one miracle is this that America is supported in this strike by the mighty Power France which filled the void created by Great Britain. In this way with the mighty power of God lot of miracles God will create to maim Assad's capacity to maim his own citizens thru the use of Chemical weapons.
