PANCHAYAT ELECTION MONEY FLOW.

Only one more day is left for Panchayat election but the noise and the money flow generating it looks this is more than American presidential election at least in my village though there is not a single candidate other than one or two who is a real social worker to  fight for the public cause. Almost all are selfish whose record of public service is Zero but yet they want to be the leaders and when stupid voters elect them then they act stupid, arrogant and proud with the locals as if they are the feudal lords. Such representatives are a burden on the village.

Yet such candidates are promoted by the interested persons – parties –panels. In my village to get their candidates elected, even Rs. 4000/- are paid to the voters.  From where so much of money is coming for distribution?  This is the big question mark and  for answer it is not very difficult. People like me from poor family background must come up in life but they must acquire their wealth thru proper means and not make the use of their wealth for pride and arrogance and to challenge others.  They must in their prosperity show simplicity and humility otherwise they will surely receive the wrath of God. Today most of the politicians who acquired wealth so fast and thru illicit methods are originally coming from the poor background but later on they forget their past because they are suffering from pride complex.

Bribing the voters and buying of votes is a sin in which both the buyers and sellers are committing a sin. Hence, in tomorrow’s sermon in our Churches the priests must tell the faithful the sinfulness of this fraud.  Church duty is to keep the faithful sin-free so that his road to heaven is clean.

Dr. Jack Sequeira once speaking on this bribery, said, if anybody gives you money accept it but don’t vote for him because he is a crimidor and such criminals are to be punished. Hence, punish them in the coming Panchayat election.

People in my village and elsewhere too must vote for the right candidates to do right justice for the villagers.  Our Sarpanchas and Panchas are become corrupt and if we re-elect them then there is a fear our villages to become a HELL.

VOTE FOR BENSO IN CANDOLIM PINTOS VADDO.

Yesterday Benedito (Benso) started his campaign more vigorously first by going to the miraculous Cross of Candolim famous Mandd which is located in Pintos Vaddo, Opposite Azilo and then visiting his voters.  Along with him a few of his close supporters were there to pray and ask help from god to help Benso to get elected in the coming election. Since Benso’s victory is sure, his opponents especially the Panelists as per my information, are trying to impress upon Benso to withdraw his candidature even by offering Benso a financial reward. Some of his opponents are even using ugly methods to threaten people not to associate with any other candidates. Voters must kick these type of ugly people and elect Benso with good majority because Benso is an active young man in our village ready to help anyone within his capacity.

But as we all know him, Benso is a Benso, he is a true son of his true father and for this reason he will act upright even after getting elected.  We need a man of his caliber in the Panchayat to fight for our rights and to protect our village from the vultures ready to devour the entire village.

Benso is contesting in Pintos Vaddo being a real Pinstoscar and not an outsider.  Pinstocar need a Pintoscar only for this reason the voters from his Ward must VOTE FOR BENSO.

DEGOANISATION OF GOA LEADS TO MILLIONISATION OF POLITICIANS.

  

In the first Panchayat election in Goa immediately following the invasion of Goa by the Bharat Serkar the lower grade of  Goans – castewise and financewise – fought that election vigorously against the upper grade Goans – castewise and financewise.  It was like a war between the bourgeois and proletarians, in this war major victory was derived by the latter but village administration went into the hands of many of the rubbish hands that were purely communal in nature. However, those administrators were sincere to their ethics.  This period lasted till mid eighties at least in my village when Tomazinho Cardoso ruled Candolim as the Sarpanch. When he was the long time Sarpanch of Candolim, Tomazinho Cardoso did not indulge in unethical practices and did not involve in corruption nor  bribe taking, as far as I know.

Then came the second phase which was initiated with the spread of large scale tourism industry.   Because of this, big moneyed people from other parts of India mainly from Delhi landed in Goa and started purchasing land from Goa and built Hotels of different dimensions, the local Panchayats started blindly issuing licences for these builders from whom lot of bribe was taken by the Panchayat administrative gangsters. So also other buildings started by the builders many times without even taking care of the local ecology because these builders already purchased the local Panchayat leaders by bribing them.

In my village and vaddo Araddy the local authority issued licenses many of them verbally to construct houses haphazardly creating a fear in the minds of residents, this was done I think by taking bribe and thru this type of money the local leaders became crorepotis.   Also in my village licenses are issued to build big hotels in an unplanned manner that makes the movement of the locals difficult.  Those who were responsible in issuing these licenses were illiterate in this field but act like top architects including the Marie Antoinette.  The rampant issuing of licenses for the builders to construct big buildings by taking huge amount of bribe has destroyed the ecology and greenery of the village on which the elected local leaders are least interested because they are outsiders in our locality and as such they have no love for the locality. They have love only for illicit money. They are suffering from superiority complex for this reason they treat people arrogantly when the locals go to them for any service.  They are fit only to take revenge against those who opposed them in the election and on personal matters.  One fellow is now “fugddi ghalta” at home while earlier he was using Panchayat as if it is his father’s property to harass the locals in a vindictive manner.

Let us vote  out those who are corrupt and vindictive. These corrupt politicians to millionise themselves have degoanised Goa.
