On 27th of
this month in Candolim at Panchayat Hall, a special meeting was held by the
Xetkar COMMITTE TO revive the farming activities in Candolim which are stopped
now due to various reasos. One of the major
reasons according to the people gathered there was the release of sewage water from
the Hotels into the fields.
If this is the case
then how these hotels were given licenses by the local Panchayat to start
functioning? Who is
responsible for this? Was it not the local Sarpanch of that time along with all
the Panchas who remained partners in the crime?
I am sure the Sarpanchas of that period must have surely approved the
licenses for these hotels only by accepting bribes otherwise how they dared to
commit these crimes of giving licenses without proper documents for the work
done? This is the reason that our
Sarpanchas and panchas accumulating enormous illicit wealth by selling licenses
thru bribe.
In Candolim people must
initiate investigation to find out how the current and earlier Sarpanches
issued licenses to Hotels – was it with the proper formalities or without thru
the acceptance of bribe money?
If Candoicars are real
Candoicars then they will initiate an enquiry to find out the mischief done by
the local Sarpanchas. If necessary they
must take recourse to legal means otherwise our Sarpanches and Panches will
sell our villages to the outsiders especially by those Sarpanches from outside
whom we call them as Ghantteetees. These Ghanttee Sarpanches are acting like
Dadas in our midst which has to be stopped.
Their robberies and briberies must be exposed, some of them came in our
villages like beggars and now started acting like Maharajas. These are the worst
culprits who pretend to be saints in the garb of Chor.
