POLITICS OF MOLESTATION IN CANDOLIM.

It is now over a week that this news has been buzzing all over Candolim and other parts in  Calangute constituency.  As per the information I gathered, a lady panch member of Candolim Panchayat complained to the Calangute Police station saying that she was molested by two persons from Candolim.   Earlier the same lady similarly complained to the Calangute Police Station saying that she was molested by another man from Candolim only.   It looks ridiculous to know that these cases are happening to the same lady twice. As for me I find it difficult to believe this news because I know both these men including the first one too thoroughly well and as such they will never commit such a scandalous act. I can easily vouch for their integrity that they will never do this act.

Incidentally, all the three accused men are prominent public figures and well known  activists in Candolim.  There is a move in my  constituency to liquidate those who oppose ODP while all the three activists are the strong opponents of PDA and ODP which according to them will do more harm than good.  It is rubbish to accept the statement that “if the ODP plan is approved there will be lot of  development in the Calangute constituency”.  But this development will come at what cost?   At the cost of our houses, fields and other properties which will go into the hands of builders who by being in close association with the big man of the constituency will definitely destroy the natural beauty of Calangute constituency and also the livelihood of the locals.

To molest any lady is not that simple especially when there are so many people around the lady. By filing false cases it looks this lady is trying to finish the activists from Candolim and get her and her mentor benefits thru builders who will not only molest but rape our land which is so important for us.  I strongly feel that she must be sent to the psychiatrist for measuring her mental capacity. Otherwise, she will again come up with more such cases against the innocent locals.

We are in the Lent season and as said in the Bible “we must not give the false testimony against anybody”.  I feel now the Church leaders of Candolim Church must interfere in this matter and question that lady why she does this type of anti-Christian acts of filing false cases. The local Pe.Vigar as the fatherly figure and being the head of Catholicism in Candolim, should use his prerogative to put an end to this type of cheap politics to quench the thirst of revenge by the elected representatives. Many of the  ills of our society will get eradicated only if our Church is active in correcting the wrong doers. The statement of the Church leaders namely Pe. Viars and Pe.Curs saying "MAKAM KITEAK PODDLAM" will not help us in anyway.  It should be like this "hem makam poddlam" and since this is the case I must interfere in this matter since both the parties are Catholics.

GOONDDA SARPANCH.

Over a month ago, a delegation of some residents from one Vaddo below my nose went to meet the village Sarpanch in his office to discuss one particular topic.   In the course of their discussion, the Sarpanch used the life threatening language against the leader of the delegation saying “I can liquidate you easily by using my manpower meaning “goondas”.  This he said in front of others.  One of the elderly members of the delegation asked the Sarpanch not to speak like this because you being a Sarpanch it is not good for you to talk like this.  This is the goonda language spoken by goondas and the said Sarpanch is one perfect goonda enjoying full support from the 2 gangs of the local Ghantti residents residing as full fledged citizens of their locality and Goa as well. By the way, these Ghanttis who are settled in our villages, have anyone noticed whether their names from the voters list in the localities they come from are cancelled?  Is it not the job of our local Panchayat before issuing them the voting cards?   

                                                                                                                         

Since this is the case, it is imperative now for every activist in that locality to inform the authorities concerned about the use of muscle power by the Sarpanch.  If any local activist is physically attacked directly or thru remote control by using the Ghantti goondas or any other goondas, the first person to be blamed will be the said Sarpanch.  It is very disturbing that this Sarpanch a regular Church goer and recipient of Holy Cmmunion and above all having a priest in the family, has  reached to such a barbaric level. This goonda Sarpanch when he first time came to Goa, he was like a refugee but when he entered into the local politics, he became lakhpoti or may be crorepoti by looting the Panchayat.  Issuing of every construction License fetches the Panchayat Lakhs of rupees which goes into the pockets of Panchayat members.  Membership as Panches of the Panchayat is the big money making business.  The rascals who were fit to be the Pimps selling even their wives and sisters, by demanding bribe for Panchayati work made lakhs and crores. For this reason they don’t retire easily unless they are kicked out.  These Pimps are so shameless that even if you strip them of their clothes they will say nothIng.            

My point here is this, is it fair to use threatening language by the said Sarpanch who himself is the non-Goan Ghantti from Karnataka? People from that locality must think carefully whether this man is fit to be their Sarpanch when their village is historically known as the most prominent village in whole of Goa giving birth to the most prominent sons of Goa.  This Sarpanch is the  perpetual  defector changing political parties like changing his Undewear.

Please note that all the authorities concerned that the life for the activists in our localities is going to be difficult because of the hurdles put in front of the activists to prevent them from raising their voices against the Salazarism and Hitlerism of such disgraceful village based leaders whose only motto in life is to accumulate wealth by hook or by crook.  These village based leaders coming from Ghanttar are a curse on our villages in particular and Goa in general.  The leadership of our villages are given to them not by the voters directly but by the elected Panchas who are interested only in their quota of bribe.  Otherwise, they are nothing and they are not capable of doing anything.  They are not visionary because they lack vision.  That they are useless one can make out from the zero level development they did in their respective Wards.  The only best job that they do is to harass their enemies to indicate their personal anger and revenge. Who are these politicians who take their personal revenge by using the public platform?  They are all big ‘Bastards” and because they are Bastards they Bastardise their power and position in the Panchayat. People  got them elected not to take their revenge against their personal enemies but people got them elected to do something good and not take their personal revenge.
