According to the latest
news in Goa’s political scenario, the present Congress MLA from Cumbharjua,
Pandurang Madkaikar is likely to defect to MGP though according to him he also
received offer from BJP. The way he
speaks of receiving offers it looks these offers are from soccer clubs where
players are free to join any club of their choice. Madkaikar speaks as if he is irresponsible
Congressman having joined Congress only
to fulfil his personal ambition of becoming a Minister and since he is out of
Power during one full term he feels frustrated like many Congressmen
because they are fake Congressmen joined Congress Party only to enhance their
personal ambitions.
However, I have to
admire Madkaikar for speaking his mind rightly and boldly when he said “The
Congress leadership is in a stage of hibernation and does not want to
move. They have no plan to tackle the
opposition and form the government”. The current leadership of Congress Party in Goa
is absolutely in the hands of inefficient person who is impotent to revive the
hope of the Party. This leadership will not mind even if the party is totally
routed in the coming election. From the
present mood of the party it looks Congress Party has already surrendered in
defeat. Precisely because of this mood some elected Congressmen are clandestinely
working out their strategy to defect to either MGP or BJP from where they came. It will be like “Ghar Wapsi” for them.
Madkaikar was right
when he said that “Congress should desist from giving tickets to old faces” and
if I am permitted to add more, “also to the defeated candidates”. These two segments will hurry the Congress
defeat in Goa. The current leadership of Congress is not interested in
promoting party’s interest because of the sacrileges this party has committed
against Goa and Goans especially with the active support and connivance of the
current leadership. Mopa, Casinos, Illegal
Mining etc. are the creations of Congress Party. Luisin Faleiro is unfit leader
to save Congress from the current rot. He got no leadership qualities in him
nor in his genes. He cannot resurrect
Congress from drowning. It is going to be a big blow on all the supporters of
Congress.
However, unless drastic
action is taken, the fate of Congress Party in the coming election is very
bleak for which the total responsibility will fall on the shoulders of the
current leadership in Goa and also on High Command in Delhi that is least
bothered on Goa.
