"NACHONK EINA ZALEAR ANGONN KHUIM VANKDDEM".

According to the latest news appearing in the local media in Goa, Churchill Alemao is accusing Goa Church and Its Priests for the defeat of all the 4 Alemaos in the just concluded election in Goa. There is a saying in Konkani which says “Nachonk Eina Zalear Angonn Khuim Vankddem ”. This is exactly what has happened to Churchill Alemao. There is another saying in Konkani which says “Khorzota khuimsor and Khorpita Khuimsor?” The reason for the defeat of Alemaos which was so humiliating, was one thing and its cause is something else. Blaming the Church and priests is an act of frustration and weakness and as such it is a sacrilege.

According to what I have noticed including at Old Goa, in my village Church and other Churches, nowhere priests advised the congregations in the Churches not to vote for Congress Party and its candidates. Nowhere in Goa, had priests advised the congregations to vote for BJP. Nowhere in Navelim constituency priests told the faithfuls in the Churches not to vote for Churchill Alemao. Neither priests told in Benaulim, Cuncolim and Sanguem to vote against Valanka, Joaquim and Yuri respectively. In their advices to the faithfuls priests never mentioned the names of any party or any candidate. What priests openly told the faithfuls congregated in the Churches was that “TO VOTE FOR THE GOOD CANDIDATES AND NOT TO THE CORRUPT ONES. Also priests told “DO NOT VOTE FOR THE SAME OLD CORRUPT FACES AND DO NOT SELL YOUR VOTES BECAUSE SELLING OF VOTES IS A SIN”.

I strongly support this move of the Goa Church in advising the faithfuls to vote rightly and not to sell their votes. Church is duty bound to advise the faithfuls what is right and what is wrong and to prevent the faithfuls from accepting bribes in exchange of votes which is a sin. I strongly support the priests in advising the people not to vote for the same old corrupt faces because these same old corrupt faces mastered the art of doing corruption and if elected they would finish Goa from this planet thru corruption. Electing corrupt persons is creating sins and thru these sins they will spread sins all over Goa. Priests’ job is to prevent the faithfuls from committing sins because committing of sins leads you to the Hell which is what priests are bound to prevent. Hence, the preaching by the priests against corrupt candidates which I fully support.

In the total fall of the mighty Alemaos there was a strong hand of the mighty God otherwise it was very difficult for their disastrous fall from the hands of the voters. As a believer in God, Churchill and other Alemaos must accept this defeat gracefully as an act of God and stop unnecessary blaming the Church and priests. Revenge and anger due to frustration will lead them to nowhere. God punish only the wrong doers and voters reject only the corrupt candidates.

As a matter of fact the grumbling and accusing defeated candidates must know that they are not born to rule infinitely like Kings. India is not a Monarchy for the same Royal family members to rule continuously. Indian democracy gives opportunity to every citizen to contest the election and come up in public life. Some of the defeated Congress candidates are prone to accuse others for their defeat. For their defeat they must accuse their own ill deeds which their voters observed and accordingly rejected them. Unfortunately the family members and relatives of some defeated candidates are guilty of accepting the ill deeds of the defeated candidates blindly instead of correcting them, if they were really good they would advise the defeated persons to stop committing crimes against Goa and Goans. But they did not do that, on the contrary they supported the ill doers till the disastrous result.

In the words of bollywood super star Amitabachan, “we must know one thing in life that we are controlled and guided by one supernatural power, for this power we must pay our obeisance otherwise we have to face the consequences as I faced". All the defeated candidates must take note of this. They faced the humiliating defeat because in their looting and corruption they feared none and cared none, neither the supernatural power nor God’s power. For such persons electoral defeat is the best medicine. Nobody should think that he or she got devince right to get elected. Nobody should take the voters for granted. Nobody should think the voters are dutybound to vote for him or her only. Voters are free to make their own choice and this time they did it rightly. The principle of Cngress of Winability with the help of money power finally gone to the dogs as people in Goa this time voted not for money but for the individuals who are not corrupt or less corrupt.

The late Dayananda Bandodkar was boasting of his power to win the elections very easily since he was loved by his MGP voters. On the strenght of their support he boasted once before his death saying "there is no power on earth to dislodge me, not even "Saddiekan" from Delhi", meaning Indira Gandhi. Finally what happened while playing Ping Pong at Gymkhana Campal Panjim? He was not only dislodged from the Goa Legislative Assembly but was totally dislodged from this planet only by one suppernatural power under the control of God. For this reason too much of pride and "dadageri" is not good. All the defeated candidates must ponder over this fearfully if they want to see their chidren and grand children coming up.

It will be very difficult for the defeated earlier kings to face the people now. Most of the time they lived the life of Maharajas by looting the poor people and sucking the blood of poor Goans. During the last so many years they lived the life of sin, arrogance and pride as Ministers and MLA’s. Now they lost their power means they are stripped of their clothes and they will be like nude creatures. They will have lot of ill-gotten wealth but it will not satisfy them. Ultimately money is not everything. Now nobody will salute them as earlier; no pilot cars with sirens; no “funkott” residential bungalows at Panjim Altinho; no bribe givers. Their status will be like that of any Ladru and Pedru. What a pitiable fall !! At least now they should learn the lesson.

DISASTER AVERTED BY REJECTING ALEMAOS.

DISASTER AVERTED AS GOANS DISCARD CHURCHILL ALEMAO AND HIS DAUGHTER.

By Menino Fernandes. (Reproduced from Niz Goemkar)


They had it all coming; they knew it but decided to defy both God and the Goans at the same time. Churchill pictured himself kissing the Bible when his deeds were that of the devil. The downfall was imminent and the Goans showed it by discarding both the father and daughter.

Ever since their downfall they must be cursing God and Goans together. Both the duo father and daughter used to show backline to the jobseekers and now they have been shown the back door by the very jobseekers and their parents.

What a disaster it would have been had Churchill and his daughter Valanka been elected? The biggest disaster in the history of Goa would have befallen on her in the form of Valanka and Churchill. Thirteen days Churchill was the Chief Minister of Goa, first of its kind a CM without even basic qualification of matriculation..

Churchill was very haughty and showed his foolishness when he attacked a very loving, strong hearted and a clean priest based at Davorlim Zori Vaddo Chapel Rev. Fr. Protasio Soares Colaco for nothing at all. No one will deny this priest’s integrity and I myself have spent my childhood in the arms of this loving priest. An article on this will be appearing soon on Niz Goenkar in details.

Churchill’s history tells us what he was and what he has become. Churchill has got a very shrews system in place that went undetected for quite sometime. He has the habit of using people by bluffing them and getting them on the streets just to satisfy his treasury. His shrewd evil mind had seen that the Goans were vulnerable to some soft issues and he used the Goans to meet his ends.

He took up the lead in the fight for Konkani but ultimately ended up with accepting Devnagiri as the script for mother tongue Konkani. Later on he took up the Mopa airport cause only to betray it later as soon as he got money in crores to sign for Mopa airport which he did quietly and stepped aside. Since Dabolim was at the centre for all the Goans, Churchill could have easily kept up the fight for it against Mopa Airport.

But his sole aim was for making money and not out of sympathy for the people. It was a trick from his foxy brain to make hay while the sun shines.

Sometime back there was a job vacancy in PWD and a girl approached Churchill Alemao for getting the Job. This stupid PWD minister had a very arrogant answer ready for her. He told her bluntly “If you have rupees fifteen lakh come forward else go to the back line there are others waiting to give that amount for the vacancy”. This is Churchill Alemao the looter of Goa and Goans. A man who demands money in lakhs for the jobs which are otherwise free of charge based on merit of the candidate.

Again Churchill tried to destroy the house of Rodrigues a son of Goa to hand over the property to Shanti Constructions a non Goan organisation.

A man who can never be trusted even for a second has at last been shown the back door by the very people whom he tried to sideline and pushed them to the back of the lines for seeking jobs.

In came his daughter Valanka as the chief secretary of her father. Valanka has nothing but foul language on her mouth which can be surely proved by one of her supporters namely Jaju Fernandes the tiatrist. The language of Valanka is so bad that she outdoes her father in all aspects.

As Navelim one man had the following story to tell. He wanted some licence for some business (he requested not to disclose this part including his name) and so he approached Valanka Alemao for a favour. When his turn came to see this lady for his work. She asked him how much he could give her monetarily. He told her rupees three lakhs. At this Valanka told him to go and put up a cigarette “Gaddo” in one corner + two powerful badwords which was disgusting to hear even leave alone typing those words here

During her tenure as her father’s secretary Valanka’s main demand from every contractor struggling to get contracts was for 20 percent of the amount. If not they were just driven away with bad mannered language which included foul language too.

She wanted to be the CM of Goa according to the rumours of chit chat around in Benaulim and Varca (could either be true or false) were they (all 4 of them) elected. Imagine what would have been the state of Goa and Goans had she been a chief minister of Goa. Can we Goans ever imagine such a CM?

But the wise people of Benaulim, Navelim, Curchorem and Sanguem at last decided to teach a lesson to this family. Goans became aware of their sinister plans and the rest is history as seen on 3rd March 2012. Who knows what the Alemao clan would have done were they elected? The guess is yours my dear Goenkars. You did well in kicking out this family.

God bless all those Goans who voted for the change.

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 !
