DADAGIRI OF GHANTTIS IN SINQUERIM/CANDOLIM

It is with regret and concern for the safety of Goans I am writing this on the “goondagiri" of the Ghattis and thereby to force all the physically capable Goans to rise up and RISE UP NOW AT THIS MOMENT not only in Sinquering and Candolim alone but also in other  villages in Goa, rise up not only in Bardez and Salcette only but also in other areas and districts of Goa to stop the brute and “Ranvotti” brutality of the disgraceful Ranvotti and “Rostad ”Ghanttis” who are not only doing goondagiri  in our midst but also trying to impose fear into our hearts and minds

Seen in all the photos here is Manuel Pereira in the GMC

According to my observation, the Ghattis and other migrants in Goa have analysed the psychology and discipline of our genuine Goans, they have noticed the non-militant attitude of genuine Goans and taking advantage of these qualities of genuine Goans which  otherwise are the best qualities, these disgraceful Indian Ghattis who are coming to Goa to destroy us in the name of gaining their livelihood, it looks to me they are preparing to liquidate us from our land. By using this type of tactics, Jews before establishing of their current State of Israel, used to de-Palestinian Arab Palestine from their land and houses by creating fear complex into the hearts of Arab Palestinians and thus forcibly and thru intimidaton they, the Jews occupied the Palestinian land forcibly and the poor Arab Palestinians – Christians and Muslims - had to run away elsewhere to save their life. Thus the original Palestinians were uprooted from their own houses and their homeland.  Similarly, I think this will be the exact policy of these Ghattis to get us evicted from our houses and our land.  For this reason about 40 years back in Vasco there was strong opposition from the genuine Goans against the disgraceful non-Goans who occupied our land and denied business privileges for Goans.  Irrespective of their religious affiliations, the genuine Goans in Vasco evicted these non-Goans from Vasco, they went to such an extent that they have even burnt the “khomttis” of those Ghattis and non-Goans.  This news was even echoed in the Parliament forcing some MP’s to condemn parochial minded Goans.  For them it was parochial thinking of Goans but when we think of metropolitan then we stand to lose because Goa is small and as such we have to guard our interest very strongly. As it is, I am given to understand in Kuwait by one top Indian diplomat that New Delhi has a plan to liquidate Goa from the Map of India and of the World and also of Goans from Goa and relocate them elsewhere.  For this reason, the Centre was very much in favour of Goa’s merger with Maharastra whence the name Goa would surely uprooted and Goans woud be called Maharastrians.  The main reason for this is that Goa’s case of invasion of Goa on 19.12.61 will remain alive as a thorn to India as long as Goa remains as Goa.  Indian government from Delhi was certain that Goa would lose the Opinion Poll and Centre has even played its cunning role in favour of merger of Goa with Maharasra but as I believe,  we won the Opinion Poll thru a real miracle, this miracle was created by none other than the almighty God and He is the mighty God of all who believe in one God whom they approach thru different religions.

These Ghattis who are coming to Goa even do not know to say good morning, they never go to school in their areas and their government don’t even provide them schools and other civilized facilities.  For this reason the people from Dodamarg are clamouring to merge with Goa.  These Ghattis  are worse than negroes in Goa during the Portuguese regime, for this reason during those days we Goans or at least some at somewhere in Goa used to associate everything bad with the negroes.  In the same way, now in the name of fake liberation of Goa which was imposed on us by indian government of “fotting” Nehru the father of “volkott” dictator Indira Gandhi having Hitlerian blood in her veins because of which she introduced cruel Emergency in 1975, the basterdised tribe among the unwanted Ghattis from the most backward region of India,  “Ghatts” are descending on my clean Goa by taking advantage of the fake liberation of Goa and dirty my  otherwise so clean Goa that it is very difficult to clean it now.  These Ghattis are much worse than those negroes behaving like “Ranvotti Zanvaram” and by using this behaviour of Wild animals, on 7^th of this month at Sinquerim Bardez, bordering Candolim, one bastard Ghatti with a heavy “Danda” (Motto Tonko) hit one of our locals, a niz Goenkar Manuel Pereeira residing at Sinquerim that falls within the jurisdiction of Caandolim Panchayat.  The Ghatti silently came from behind without giving any clue of his following Manuel, hit Manuel on his shoulder so hard that Manuel fell unconscious and the Ghatti then disappeared from that scene.  Then Mauel’s  close friends came and took Manuel to the Candolim Health Center where doctors advised Manuel’s friends to take him to GMC immediately because his bone was broken needing immediate operation.

The  animosity of that Ghatti against Manuel was because Manuel it seems told him not to throw the Garbage next to Manuel residence. As per one source while hitting Manuel that Ghatti was shouting saying “I will kill you – I will kill you, I will kill all the Goans”.  He was then arrested by the Calangute Police and is remanded to Police custody for 6 days.

Personally I feel there is a deep animosity between Manuel and Goans on one side and on the other side Ghattis and non-Goans who are trying to liquidate Manuel and some Goans because of some reasons one of them is political one.  Four years back during the  peaceful agitation organized in Panjim by the supporters of Fr. Bismarq to mark the anniversary of the unravelled  murder of Fr. Bismarq, Manuel was arrested in the Ferry Boat itself while going to Panjim to participate in this agitation in Panjim, it was a big scene at that time when it was headlined by the Goan Press and TV too.  Manuel is otherwise a strong activist involved in supporting social causes and his political affiliation goes in favour of Aam Admi.  Unless a thorough probe is conducted, we will not come to know the genuine reason of this crime because as Shakephere said "there are more things in Heaven than what we dreamt" (Hamlet). Police from Calangute Police Station must find out who are the persons behind that Ghatti, it was a very well planned attack on Manuel and it did not happen just at the spur of the moment.

Meantime we all the genuine Goans have to join together to counter the attack of these rascal Ghattis who when they came to our side first time without  even  proper “Kaxtti” and while their women without even proper dress to cover their bodies properly, we gave them shelter  to live and to work but not to do the dadagiri with us.  But after all a “Ghatti is the Ghatti”, he will never leave his brutality because in Ghanttar where he is born and brought up he was developed and grown up by doing goondagiri and dadagiri because it was his survival that is most important to him as we say “survival of the fittest”.  And as such these Ghattis will never give up their goondagiri.  It is said in our language Konkani “Mazor Himsan soddit pun he Ghatti Dadagiri kednanch soddchenant”.   We must form our groups in our villages and Vaddos comprising physically fit Goans, mainly the youth to defend our Goans from the onslaught not only of the Ghattis but also of others who threaten us and our survival.  We must have contact of every person of such groups so that during any eventuality we must contact the members of these groups who will come to the rescue of the Goans who are in need of assistance. This is the time to strengthen ourselves.  A few days back in Benaulim because of Taxi business some Ghattis or migrants indicated their might to us Goans,  yesterday Manuel was assaulted, today something else has happened and tomorrow it could be anything worse.  Hence, it is better that we should now only build our groups to defend us Goans. And as far as possible, we must stop patronizing their goods and services because economically weakened Gatti or migrant will be handicapped to flex his muscles.

The Ghatti who assaulted Manuel, according to my latest information is the resident of Candolim Araddy where with the blessing of our politicians it was converted into a safe haven for these Ghattis and migrants.  According to my information in this place that is called “Ghattianchi Araddy”, lot of Illicit activities are going on, some are with the blessings of the politicians.  It is my firm suggestion to the local Panchayat to get full details of all the people living in Ghattiachi Araddy so that they can be tracked immediately if they are found for doing any murder or robbery or any other ill deed. Last time one Ghatti assaulted one local from Vaddi Candolim but when the battalion of the assaulted Goan came to catch the Ghatti, he disappeared not only from Candolim Ghattianchi Araddy but he disappeared from Goa itself.  Because of this we need to know the biodata of every migrant living in Ghattiachi Araddy to trace and to track them for any need.

Besides, as per my informasion, all those Ghattis and Migrants living in Ghattiachi Araddy are having voting rights.  But to my knowledge they are also having voting rights in their own states from where they are come.  How these voters were given voting cards in Goa without cancelling their voting cards in their home States?  Is it the job of the local Panchayat or local MLA or the local politicians? Those politicians who are interested in reducing the support of the local politicians relying on the vote bank of Candolim Araddy ghattis, must act fast on this point because most of the voters here will  readily surrender their voting cards from Goa but not surely from their home states even though according to one source one local politician is easily giving each household  5 to 10 thousand rupees because he makes so much of money thru dubious means otherwise without acting as Dr. Jackeyl and Mr. Hyde you cannot accumulate such an enermos wealth which is displayed thru the pompous ways of living and having  innumerable concubines for sexual pleasures.    

Now a local man Manuel Pereirs was assaulted by a Ghatti.  What is going to be the role of other locals, Sinquerkars and Candoicars?  Just to keep silence and watch more of such incidents happening in our midst? When Aguada Khapris – negroes – at Candolim Dando next to Sinquerim,  killed the son of the Professor of the  Parochial School of the then mighty Tiatrist Alexinho de Candolim,   during the Portuguese rule, Alexinho de  Candolim became so furious that he immediately composed a powerful song which he was not allowed to sing in Goa by the Portuguese government of Goa but he went to Bombay and rended it there in Bombay and its echo was heard in Goa creating a solid effect. The piercing and result creating effects of that song were such that the people of Candolim was forced to get up from their deep sleep when one of their villagers was killed by an outsider and that too by the Khapris bought by the Portuguese from their African colonies Angola & Mocambique? Herebelow I quote a few lines of that magnificent song that even shook the brute might of the colonialists in Goa and their local "Chamcha" Regidore.  

ZORI TOR HI GHODDNI ANIK KHUIMCHEAI GANVANT GHODDTI

GAUM EKTAIM ZAUN SURU ZATELEO ASLEO MORTI

PUN CANDOIKARANCHEA ROGTAK BHAVANI AIZ AILI SUKTI

Now, my question to the people of Sinquerim and Candolim is this:

It is so many days now the bloody shittty non Goan and outsider assaulted our own Goan brother,  why all the people of Sinquerim and Candolim are silent?  Otherwise they should have geraoed the house of that bloody Ghatti. Where are the leaders of Candolim and Sinquerim gone now?  Are they sleeping now?  What sort of leaders are they?  Where are our people’s representatives gone now?  Is it an irrelevant issue to them? Can we expect any justice and support from our MLA/Minister in favour of Mnuel Pereira?  At this stage even if Manuel is wrong we have to defend him because he is our man.  Do we the Candoikar and Sinquerkar have guts  to fight these Ghattis?

If Sinquerkars and Candoicars are real sons and daughters of their real Goan fathers then they will show our anger not only to the Ghatti who assaulted our Goan brother but to all the Ghattis and migrants flooding every evening our Tinto where they are creating fear complex against the locals. At this moment we canot say "makam kiteak poddlam"?  If you say so then I will ask one more question.  "Tukam poddonk na zaleaar tujea maechea Minnak poddlam"  Tukaim poddonk na ani makaim poddonk na zalear niti passot konn zogoddtolo? This is not the time for us to escape from our responsibilities especaially by the local elected leaders.  They must all, the elected leaders who are voted by the people  come out opoenly and declare their stand on this topic.  If they are real leaders having real calibre of leadership then they will support Manuel Pereira. It is their time now to indicate their  stand, either  they are for the local Goan Manuel Pereira or they are supporting non-Goans Ghattis.

VIVA PORTUGAL VIVA SALAZAR. LIBERATION OF GOA IS A BIG JOKE.

On 6^{th  of this month,}  4^th anniversary of the murder of Fr. Bismarq was observed with a meeting organized in Panjim at the Institute Menezes Braganza Hall,  attended  by the local supporters of the priest as well as special visitors from Orissa and Punjab. It is  shame for the Goa government not to catch the real culprits in this mysteriously murderous death of Fr. Bismarq. It is a shame for the Goa government to neglect the seriousness of this case and just conclude it saying “it was an accidental drowning case”. 

Let me be true to myself and quote that great freedom fighter Ravindra Kelekar about 35 years back saying “Ami Pro Portuguezuch zaunk zai” when he noticed things going out of the way in Goa. His intention was to clearly declare that there was no proper justice given by the concerned authorities as it was done during the Portuguese rule. In view of this I take the liberty of my free conscience and of the constitutional freedom of apeech and declare here as “VIVA PORTUGAL – VIVA SALAZAR” not because I love them but because during their rule in Goa there was justice existing. If they were ruling Goa now I am sure within 4 hours they would track down the real culprits and solve the mystery surrounding the death of Fr. Bismarq.

Goans who experienced the rule of our colonisers and noticed the sense of justice of Portugal under Salazar I am sure they will definitely  admire them even though like myself they would never accept their colonialism. There is nothing going right in this so called liberated Goa which is become a big joke, everywhere you see chaos, disorder and disrespect for law and order because the law makers coming from the rotten background and with the corrupt family background themselves are become law breakers since they are totally corrupt. People fit to be “zotkar-xetkar” and Grave Diggers are become members of Legislatures. So, what good we can achieve from these intellectually bankrupt people?  State administration is an art with qualitative education meant to rule the State but if we send donkeys in our Legislatures to rule our State then we will have nothing but the Raj of Doneys. It does not look there is government in Goa because the Pot Holes alone give a disgraceful image of Goa under the rule of the present  government.

The MLA’s and Ministers are so shameless that they don’t even feel ashamed to show their ugly faces with big mouths and long tongues.  See the corruption where our politicians, elected representatives and ministers are involved.  See our local Panchayats manned by most of the third grade elected representatives who are become so corrupt that they don’t even care for God and because they don’t even care for God they do all the corrupt activities which are against God’s commandments.  Incidentally, they attend to all their religious services in their respective religious temples indicating that they are holy people. It is very difficult to get a single good person in Goa who will do his duties and work in the public arena sincerely.  Such a level of character degradation was not existing in Goa during the Portuguese rule especially among the public figures.  During Portuguese rule in Goa there was discipline, character, system and respect for rule and law because Portuguese rulers were giving utmost importance for these characteristics and not like now where our leaders are totally corrupt.  Analysing all these factors I don’t know in which direction Goa  is going.

APPOINT THE RIGHT PERSON AS PRESIDENT OF TAG

In Herald dated 5.11.19 one news item appeared saying that Curchorem MLA and Minister Nilesh Cabral said “new president for the Tiatr Academy of Goa will be appointed within a month”. Now my question is this: what is the authority  of the Minister Cabral to interfere in this matter when it does not come under his jurisdiction?

The main question comes here is not the appointment of the TAG president within a month but why it was not filled during the last so many months?  I feel it is an act of total irresponsibility on the part of the person holding the relevant portfolio to keep this important post vacant for such a long period. Is it due to the bias of the Goa government against the Roman script Konkani to neglect the importance of Tiatros among its followers and also because  the Tiatros expose the misdeeds of the Government?  If it is so then I must say that the delay in the repairs of Kala Academy Hall in Panjim is intentional to punish Tiatrists and gradually to liquidate Tiatros which according to me will never happen because during its last 150 years of existence Tiatros took a very firm root among us.

The next person who will occupy the presidency of TAG should be appointed purely  on the basis of his/her merit and not thru the ministerial influence as allegedly done in the past. Besides, in no way this presidency should be filled by anyone who already already served one term and as such they have finished their capacity to do anything worthwhile becaause we already have better  candidates. 

Moreover, those who betrayed the Roman script Konkani during the passing of the language bill in late eighties should be kept away because they are traitors.   The so called self appointed leaders of Roman Script Konkani  who miserably failed to oppose the draft bill failed us too in our labourious efforts from Kuwait for such a lengthy period. It was their duty to act in support of Romi script Konkani if they were capable but they proved to be idiots and such idiots we don’t want anymore anywhere. Besides the amateur and part time tiatrist should not be appointed
