When Goa needed freedom from foreign rule of Portugal, our
genuine Freedom Fighters from Salcette came forward to fight as Freedom
Fighters to obtain real freedom for Goa while many of their counterparts from the
other side of Goa came forward as Freedom Fighters to make Goa as Hindu Raj. Our Sxttikar Freedom Fighters were more
secular in their thinking.
During the Opinion Poll it was our Saxttikar who stood by Goa
solidly and snatched Goa from the jaws of Maharastra thereby putting an end to
the constant threat of merger. This was the greatest battle Saxttikar fought to
save Goa from getting liquidated.
When the soul of Goa that is Konkani had to be recognised to
get Statehood for Goa, our Saxttikar again gave a strong support to this cause
and produced the first Konkani Martyr in Floriano Vaz while the remaining
Konkani Martyrs were produced by Ilhas.
Now on 12th of this month there is going to be an
election for the two Parliamentary Seats, one of them from South Goa where
our Saxttikar will play a major role and they alone can tilt the situation in support of secular Goa.
Now, it is my sincere request to all the Saxttikar voters to show
their normal and genuine maturity with wisdomatic assessment of the real situation and elect the
right candidate of secular thinking and from genuine secular party. In the past
Saxttikar never allowed themselves to be cheated by the communal parties and
communal candidates. I hope now also they will not get cheated by the communal elements.
Candolim.
Goa.
