THEY DESERVE CASH PRIZE TOO.

                            First Prize Winners:Ivon-her son-her husband Jose.

Good deed by Tiatr Academy of Goa in organizing the 3 three days “Zomnivoilo Khell” competition from 3^rd to 5^th of this month at Kala Academy premises, in the open air, on the ground.  It was very interesting competition in which the Play  “TONDAR HANS FATTLEAN GANS” by the husband and wife pair of Jose & Ivon  where the latter played an excellent role. It was full of comedy she played and of course it was witty too.  All the contestants in all the Plays performed well but yet some ingredients of original “Zomnivoilo Khell” were found missing in all the Plays.  For example, the most important musical instrument Clarinet was missing in the Band, the Sastti tune for the songs was also found missing.  These two requirements  make the Zomnivoilo Khell commendable.  Third thing, the Cover for the artistes to change their dresses is not put up in the original Zomnivoilo Khell where everything is transparent because there is no change of dress in the original khell system.

TAG is the government funded body and as such the organizers must be having sufficient funds and hence they should have made some provision to allocate certain amount for  prize money to the prize winners and not just Certificates and Mementoes.  According to my information TAG is in the habbit to return some money back to government for not being able to utilize the entire grant government gives. If this is true then they must be imitating Dayananda Bandodcar during his early period as Chief Minister of Goa when he was returning some money back to Centre for being idiot to return back when he should have spent the entire amount scientifically for the development of Goa. 

Bandodcar lacked proper education to run his post and thus he failed to utilize the Central funds properly. Just because he had brute mandate Bandodcar became CM otherwise he and his team were unfit to rule Goa. “Ghoribancheam bhurgeank Pomburpechim Festam Kiteak?”  “Har nachta mhonn Ghanddoi nachlear zata?” Thus go our proverbs.
