With the mighty fall of the mighty Congress Party in the just concluded election in Goa came the mighty fall of the mighty curse which was destroying Goa for such a long period. First time in the history of post Portuguese regime period in Goa voters have shown their real calibre by dumping Congress into the deep sea from where many of the congressmen will never come back to fight the next election. Many of the congressmen in Goa are selfish embracing congress only for their own selfish benefits. They are defectors and some habitual defectors, for such people you call corrupt politicians because by following the trend of defection they have corrupted themselves and the whole political system without any shame. For such corrupt politicians heavy defeat as it happened now is the right medicine and this time Goan voters have given all the corrupt defectors a very good medicine.
The corrupt Goan politicians are responsible to spoil the minds of the new generation by tempting them to involve in politics not to serve the society but only to make money by looting and raping Goa and Goans. The loot of the corrupt politicians is so high that with the looted money they can even live in the moon but God will never give them and their family members peace to enjoy this loot. These corrupt politicians have no principle for this reason they jumped like frogs from one party to another thru defection thereby robbing the trust of the voters as if the voters are their Mundkars and they Battkars.
The decline of Congress in Goa has already been started and if its fate is to be revived then Congress High Command must introduce a Master Plan of the type ‘Kamraj Plan’. Under this plan introduced in late fifties by Congress Party President Mr. Kamraj and approved by the Congress High Command in Delhi, all the senior Congressmen should refrain from contesting elections and instead do the grassroots level work in their respective states to gain the confidece of the peple and to develop the party to revive the party’s hope of winning the future elections. But will such a Plan work in Goa? I doubt very much because majority of the Congressmen in Goa are corrupt, looters and bribe takers. For this reason they are called corrupt and such corrupt Congressmen will do anything to contest the electios because they are not genuine Congressmen having no love for congress and it principles.
Prataph Sing Raoji Rane was originally MGP; his son adopted Congressman; Ravi Naik originally MGP; Narvenkar originally MGP; Churchill Alemao congressman of convenience having the title of habitual defector; Mauwin Godingo defector; Sardinha also defector. Likewise many congressmen are defectors and as such they will never work for the development of the congress party and will never be faithful to the congress party and its ideals. For such corrupt party, Parrikar alone will be the cure.
Public life is such that any person involving himself or herself in public life he or she is exposed to the public accolades if he or she does good otherwise he or she is exposed to public critism. In case he or she cannot accept public criticsm he or she should not involve in public life. Politics of election is one type of public life where politicians are totally torn into pieces if they are found to involve in corruption, taking bribe is the worst type of corruption. And is there any politician in Goa who is not indulging in takng bribes? The money accepted as Bribe is the biggest curse and those politicians who force the people especially the poor to pay bribe are cursed by the God. Not only them but even their children, all other family members, relatives, friends and supprters who directly or indiiretly enjoy the benefit of this loot.
In Goa the government jobs are sold to the hihgest bidder, the quotes are even going to 50 lakhs of rupees for the lucrative jobs. Who can in Goa among the poor afford this hefty amount to bribe the Ministers to get government jobs? The entire rot of selling government jobs was started with the formation of PDF government and it carried forward ruthlessly till the last election. Parrikar government must make amend to this system of keeping the government jobs on sale to the highest bidders since Parrikar has already promised Goans for implementing the policy of Zero tolerance for corruption.
