PARRICAR & BANDODCAR ARE SAME.

“Salcete didn’t vote for BJP, but my Govt won’t neglect it: Parrikar”, said Parricar recently as per the media reports.  Fine, it is not a big thing if Salcette was neglected as a punishment by the government of the ruling party BJP just as MGP did under Dayananda Bandodcar when MGP won the elections in Goa.  Being a half ”Botto”, Bandodcar can speak such a language but surely not Parricar.  By talking thus, Parricar is trying foolishly to gain cheap sympathy from the public mainly from the Salcette as if he is doing a favour on Salcette. He should know that his government is elected to serve entire Goa and not minus Salcette. This that “Botto” did not realized earlier.

First of all it is not correct on any ruling party government to neglect the segment of people that  did not vote for the ruling party government.  Once any party forms the government, the same government becomes duty bound to cater to the needs of the entire area of the territory or state or the country. What Parricar is talking is all bullshit.  As an educated man such thoughts should not come into his mind.

Till his death, Bandodcar took his revenge on Salcette for not voting for MGP, by ignoring its development. He concentrated his whole attention on North Goa by doing lot of developments in this segment, even the roads in this area were far better than those in the Salcette.  His daughter after his death carried forward the same revengeful policy against Salcette till she was kicked out of power by her own partymen like Dayananda Narvenkar, Dilkush Desai and others. When anybody acts too much with anger and revenge against others, he/she ultimately collapses beyond recovery because this is the natural law.

Bandodcar was acting too harsh against Salcette  because it was dominated by Christians and since he was having revenge against Christians, he with the political power backing him, was working against the interest of the entire Christan community in Goa, at least clandestinely.  The MGP itself is ANTI-CHRISTIAN. The same tirade against the Christians was carried forward by Shashikala Kakodcar. And what punishment they got?  One i.e Bandodcar died while playing Table Tennis in Panjim and his daughter Shashikala was miserably failed to acquire the power again. With these two major setback, the family raj of Bandodcar was disappeared from this planet., What a great fall was that ! With that fall a curse on Goa disappeared.

DISMISS VISHWAJIT OR FACE MORE TROUBLE.

“If I cannot bring the necessary order in the Government Hospitals in Goa, then nobody will ever be able to do”, said once by the first Health Minister of Goa Mr. Karmali. He used to work day and night to give good service to the Goans just as they were getting during the Portuguese rule in Goan hospitals. Unfortunately with his relentless efforts he failed because the rot that we borrowed from Bharat serkar is too deep rooted in our system and in too short a time.  Government hospitals in Goa are plagued not only by the ill-equipped medical service with some arrogant doctors and rude nurses but administratively they are very ill administered by the low grade administrators. 

If the security personnel were a bit courteous and decent things would not have reached to the level it reached during the trouble between the two ladies and the Vishwajit Rane at Hospicio Margao.  The security manned by the uncultured personnel most of them are called “Ghanttis” should be held responsible first and secondly the Minister himself for acting like a Maharaja and expecting the same type of treatment from the staff and visitors in the hospitals. This is typical of Ranes behaviour during the Portuguese regime from whom they enjoyed lot of benefits. And falsely they considered themselves as anti-Portuguese.

There were “Xemaecheo Kannio” told us when we were young saying that Rannos were bad people.  Most of the bad habbits of those days were associated with Ranos. They were with the backing of Portuguese serkar living like Monarchs and acting like Monarchs only.  See that “kalcho-porcho potto” at Hospicio Hospital how he was speaking as if Goa and Hospicio were his father’s property.  He forgot that he was a public servant and instead he should have maintained certain decorum and not act like those who failed to show such a decorum while discussing.

Vishwajit Rane said “I am a minister and not a labourer” and as such he deserved decency from the ladies arguing with him.  Fine, but he should not expect the treatment of a Monarch though he is Monarch for his father and mother, for us he is a public servant and as such he must act as a servant and not as a feudal lord. Good that none of the ladies give a solid slap on his face though it was looking like happening.  But with this incident, assaulting the Ministers physically and verbally will be a routine happening. Both those ladies created a base for others to take the law into their hands.  There will be more violence now even kidnapping of Ministers’ children and grand children will take place because people are disgusted with the Ministers who are spreading lawlessness and corruption in every segment of our society.  

By the way, can a civilized and decent person treat a corrupt public servant with decency?  This is the big question. Is Vishwajit Rane not a “fotting”and a traitor? If not then why he deserted Congress and joined BJP?  Is he not a corrupt?  Which good person will respect him when he does not deserve respect? He has created a fear complex into the Medicos working in GMC and elsewhere with dire consequesces without proper reason. This will reflect on Parricar in the next election otherwise he should be sacked from Health Ministry because he is still a KID.

BHIM TOXEM BHAT - SR. RANE & JR. RANE.

This incident I am quoting here happened somewhere in 1970-71, if I am not mistaken.  It happened in my village Candolim at Dr. Gustavo Monteiro Foot-ball ground during the inter-village football final between Saligao and the host Candolim.  I was one of the players playing for Candolm as captain of the team. The situation on the ground was fluid, the spectators in bigger number were favouring the Saligao team to win.  Suddenly there was an altercation between two players of each team that resulted in exchange of wrestlers blows between both the players, one Mr. Damu of Saligao and the other Lopes from Candolim.    Within a split of a second, the crowd from all sides invaded the ground and one could only hear the sound of blows.  The chief guest of the day was the then Law Minister of Dayananda Bandodcar,  Shri Prataphsing Raoji Rane the father of the current Health Minister of Goa, Shri Biswajit Rane who I am sure was not even born then. 

Sr. Rane while seated in the VIP Gallery, got up and spoke in his normal Hitlerian tone telling the people to stop fighting. Punaji Achrekar the then MLA of Saligao was accompanying Sr. Rane but favouring the existing commotion on the ground with his silent nod to the rowdies to carry on with the commotion because Candolim were winning the final. Then there were answers from the public to Rane to be silent because “you know nothing of football”.  For this,  Rane lost his temper and came out along with Achrekar and others from the host side escorting him, in the middle of the ground and started shouting like a "Bebdo" thus “Aum tumkam bienare, tumche sarkille anvem kitlech polleleat, aum student astana anv khusti khelpi ani anvuim zogddonk zanna”.  Hearing this undiplomatic tone and text containing nothing but “abuzad”, the people started abusing Rane with filthy words even directing against his non-Goan wife.  This type of rough language with raised voice did not suit the Minister, instead he should have used a soft tone with soft language to pacify the crowd who felt hurt by the wrong decision of the referee leading to this end.

In the same manner, in Margao at Hospicio Hospital Biswajit Rane also acted like his father earlier leading to the two ladies to lose their temper because they were hurt by the security.  The Jr. Rane was acting like a Hitler with his high tone and Hitlerian words like “You shut up”, “you don’t talk”.  As a Minister he should have cool down his temparement and taken both the ladies in a nice and civilized manner to any office inside and sorted out the differences but surely not the way he acted.  He acted thus because he is a kid meant to play “goddeancho khell”. Good that neither of the ladies slap on his face.  Because of his father he got political platform ready made and ministership without maturity, wisdom and required medical education to hold  the Health Ministry. This leads to the mockery of his job.  He will never be able to bring in changes there but will succeed in looting the public exchequer like others and if given a chance he will promote and  practice NARVENKARISM. These today’s “Kalche porche potte” while as Romeos are become MLA’s and ministers and ultimately what good one can expect from such kids? It is a shame for the voters from Valpoi to have such a "gorvam rakhnno type boy" as their representative who in the coming election must be voted out to teach him a very good lesson.
