MISSION ZERO TOLERANCE.

Although the sun has set on the election “fiesta” in Goa, the euphoriaover the defeat of the corrupt Congress is still overflowing inabundance. I certainly do not hold it against the people for going“gaga” over Parrikar and the BJP even though the acrimonious defeat ofthe Congress has certainly transcend into what looks to be anoverwhelming victory for Parrikar and the BJP and victory it is butunfortunately the battle is not been won yet, as there is a lot to bedone and I dare say it will be cake walk or even a walk in the parkfor Parrikar and his young and not so young brigade.

The supporters are still saluting the winners through the news papersand rallies and the candidates in turn salute the voters, even thosethat lost are thanking their bereaved supporters for standing by themthrough thick and thin, some have even promised to continue theirdynamic social work and come back strongly for another inning, it maysound audacious but roaches and bugs do tend to surprise us time andagain, may they all finally manage to apply the dynamics of dynamismin reality.

Goans are happy that the Congress has been smothered into the ground,as we were certainly looking for a change even though some may havetheir reservations and presumptions about Parrikar, but he deserves asecond chance, after ten years of corruption orgy that has left Goadesecrated and battered by Congress renegades. Parrikar has got hissecond chance now and he better not screw it up because Goans haveshown what they are willing to do, if pushed against the wall. So tostart with let’s give him his 100 days before we start judging him andhis intensions, for his own sake and for the sake of Goa just hope hecan get us out of this mess. Even though some Goans say that Goa isalready a lost cause, however this timely defeat of the Congress couldbe the much needed life support to the brain dead but technicallystill alive comatose, who is unknowingly still fighting for its lifeand the situation could yet be reversed.

With the first session of the freshly elected Assembly to convene injust a few days time, a five men army has been selected by Parrikar tohelp him launch his mission “zero tolerance” in Goa but even beforethe first mission has taken off, Parrikar’s choice of the crew membersfor the launch has been questioned, there are a lot of speculationsthat the security plates scamster, in the last Goa mission “corruptionfull throttle” will be made the Minister of the most lucrative and onethe most sought after Ministry, namely the PWD, as a result cynicshave already started questioning Parrikar’s tolerance levels. I surehope Parrikar will put Sudin Dhavalikar in place before he startsacting like the man from Varca. He is the one person that Parrikarwill have to watch closely.

Except for the Sidin Dhavalikar issue, Parrikar seems to have startedon the right foot and on a right note and I only hope, like a goodring master Parrikar can hold the Marciam tiger on a leash because theBJP on its own have a good healthy majority with a few independents tospare, and we can only hope that Parrikar’s mission “zero tolerance”,which is our only hope at present, will not backfire and turn into a“mission impossible” and that too a “ghost protocol” lacking insubstance as well as direction, or a mission lost in oblivion. Mr.Manohar Parrikar, Goans with bated breath await for the success ofmission “zero tolerance”. All the best !

CURSE OF CONGRESS POLITICIANS.

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.

CONGRESS DEFEAT - A DEVINE PUNISHMENT.

It is a big blessing that Cong., in Goa was not only defeated but massacred in the recently concluded election. By liquidating Cong., God has saved Goa from liquidation. The pride and arrogance of Congressmen in Goa was such that if they were elected now they would make the people open their mouths and shamelessly piss into their mouths, so much they would do. Especially the longtimers in the Assembly would do this act. They forgot that they belong to this planet because power has corrupted them making them immune to the feelings of the ordinary Goans. In this humiliating defeat of Cong., there was heavy hand of God that played the whole role of punishing Congress party.

People voted BJP to power not because they loved BJP but as a revenge against pride and arrogance of Congressmen mainly those holding portfolios. They lived and behaved like Emperor Nero. They wielded power over people in Goa in such a way that they could mar or make anyone with ease. They behaved not as earthly creatures but like coming from the outer planet. By being in ruling party either rightly or thru defection they acquired habit of living like super human beings. I don’t know how they will live now and face the people as unknown entities.

From this defeat I don’t think any of them will recover in the next election. By the time the next election comes some of the heavyweights will lose their sanity and acquire physical deformity as a punishment from God for acting like "Dadas" during their peak season as MLAs and as Montris. When Narvenkar came to know that he is losing while counting the votes, he said "I am leaving now for home where I will go to sleep and return only if there is a change in my result in my favour’. Narvenkar gone to sleep from where he will not come back because he will sleep like Rip Van Winkle for twenty years. While others will have politically "SASNNACHI NID" because God will never allow them to come back from the political oblivion they are deported now by their voters. They and their family members never expected them to face such a disaster but God made this to happen because God alone knew that how bad they will behave if they were re-elected.

Where are all the social workers from Cong. Party gone now? If they were real social workers they would get elected but they were rejected by their voters because they were not real social workers. Who is the real social worker? Mahatma Ghandi said ‘India does not need political workers but social workers to elevate the poor people’. Unfortunately, the current social workers are looting the poor in the name of social work instead of helping the poor to elevate their standard. A real social worker does not demand bribe for doing public service. A real social worker is humble and not proud and arrogant. A real social worker is not doing "goondagiri" but behave decently. A real social worker is not taking protection in political clout of the political figures especially of his/her father, wife/husband or brother but take protection in good work. And a real political worker does not embark in politics but confine himself or herself in doing only the social work. The moment the social worker enters into a political field he or she ceases to be a genuine social worker.

Congress in Goa during the last so many years as ruling party has sucked the blood of the poor Goans. Can anyone imagina demanding of 5 lakhs of rupees as bribe for an ordinary job of a Peon in the government department? Which poor person will bring such a big amount to feed the rascal Ministers? And on top of it all these Congressmen and Cong. ministers barked like dogs saying they were serving the poor Goans. In fact they were not serving poor Goans but they were liquidating poor Goans. Parrikar Government must investigate which government servant was forced to dole out lakhs of rupees as bribe to which Minister thru his PA or son or daughter to get him or her the government job under Congress "Serkar".
