ELECTIOIN FEVER IS SUBSIDED. - PART I.

 Finally the voting for the Election of 2022 for the Goa Legislative Assembly was over with the participation of 11.64 lakhs electorates plus 301 candidates from 12 political parties with the Independentes as well.  13 Candidates from one single Constituency i.e. Siolim is the highest number of candidates in one single constituency.

The first election for the Goa Legislative Assembly was held in 1963 when the electorates were not matured compared to the present ones. In fact the first election in Goa was held immediately after the conquest of Goa by the Nehru’s government in Delhi and it was for Village Panchayats all over Goa.  This was the first election in Goa but history tells us that Goa organiised elections much earlier for the Municipalities and to the Portuguese Parliament where Goa used to send two of Goa’s representatives,  one from the North and the other  from the South.  For Indian Ghantees elections may be some NOVIDADE but surely not for Goans. Inspite of this Goans goofed somewhere during the election process. In the first election for the Goa Les. Assembly,  the two major political parties were United Goans headed by Dr. Jack de Sequeira  and the other Maharastrawadi Gomantak Party whose symbol was Lion while that of UG Hand  and that of Congress of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was Cow. Even though the Congress Party was enjoying  enormous amount of goodwill and strong support almost from all over India but in Goa it received a strong defeat winning not a single seat in Goa.  One of the reasons according to our elders for this defeat was the anger of senior Goans against the forcible annexation of Goa by  India by using the mighty Military Force against Goa without taking major portion of Goans into confidence.  No doubt the overwhelming number of Goans were wanting the Portuguese to leave Goa peacefully  and voluntarily handing Goa into the hands of Goans but not the way it was invaded in the name of liberation  thereby Goans are made strangers in their own land where they are losing all their Goan attributes and characteristics. This negative feeling of Goans against Congress Party  of Nehru  provoked huge number of Goans to vote against Congress. 

Since the fight was between the UGP and the  MGP that was the worst hard core Hindu fanatic  party which  was the   strong anti-Christian because they were zealous of all round development and the progress made by the Christians.  But in reality Goan Christian were fit for nothing exceptional except for Beber – Cumer & Fuder, as it was taught to us by the Portuguese, hence it was wrong to say that Christians in Goa were advanced, they are not, the entire economy of Goa was into the hands of Hindus, they are more hard working; the major industry of GoA, MINING was in totality into the hands of Hindus, namely Chowgules, Salgaocars, Timble, Dempos ad others.  Where are the Fernanbdeses, D'Souzas and others gone?  The trade and commerce was into their hands only, most of the educated professionals in Goa are Hindus namely Doctors and Engineers.  Christians went to  the Gulf, Africa, Canada, USA, UK and Tarvar and minus the Gulf residents all others settled in those countries where they went.  The entire Gulfies and Tarvotti clan thru their fatty remittance they inflated the economy of Goa but like typical with  buttlers mentality  they did not build their small scale industries nor they invested their money in something productive neither they pressurized the local  Goa Government in helping them in that direction. With the strength of their moneey power they only constructed the big houses spending lakhs of rupees, purchased  Limousines which fall into dead investment. Then they purchased flats at Altinhos to create a posh image of themselves as residents of   high profile residential areas that  they would get as a big show which they wanted very much because  they lacked the sophisticated image that even denied to them the prominent places for them in the society.  This is due to the discriminatory attitude of our Goan society.

 

Now coming back to the jokes Goans made of themselves during the first eAssembly election let me cite one concrete example.  An elderly lady was told by her son this: “Mae tum bhitor voch ani thuimsor tukam te dakoitolet

Ek zago zuim tum eklich astoli thuimsor tum tujem mot gal HATAK mhonchem

Tum tuzo Xikko mar Hatacher”.  Ti babddi bhitor gheli ani aplo Xikko apleach haticher marlo and ballot paper bhitor ghatlem dhobean ani aili khoxen bhoron apnem applem vhodd kam kelem mhonn.  Pun maguir gomtoch tinem kitem kelem tem, putak ani herank sogleank ekdom loz zali.

 

During the election campaigning, both the MGP and the UGP were firing each other by coining very attractive slogans.  MGP coined this: Bhavani  ani bhoinani tumchim mortam chotraen ghalat, hatikui patienakant and Ghaikui patienakat kiteak HAT KORIT TUMKAM. 

To be concluded.

As the election day  is  coming closer, some sort of nervousness is coming just by having a feeling that the Goenkars who boast of   their slogan of “Goa & Goykarponn” is most  probably coming to an end because of my so called brothers  regionally,  traditionally, culturally, linguistically, geographically and in so many other ways  are becoming day by day unreliable though we both on both the sides inhale the same air and drink the water from the same earth.  Though my so called Goan brothers and sisters are become so corrupt that for the sake of one small Envelope containing 6 Currency Notes totaling to Rs.6000/-what a pity it is to see these my brothers and sisters are falling prey to the 6 Currency Notes of    Rs. 500/- each.  Thru this bribe by our Representatives they proved to everyone who received this envelope they are nothing but  Prostitutes.  The job of  the Prostitute   and the recipient of Money Envelopes is the same, both are  doing the same type of  job of giving some sorts of service in exchange  of money.  Leave aside those voters whose financial position is very poor and because of poverty line they can be allowed to receive the envelopes but definitely NOT the affluent ones.   Good that during the Opinion Poll Time such Goans were not existing otherwise Dayananda Bandodcar and his group would capture the entire Goa and give it into the hands of  Maharastra. On top of it, these people  are taking pride in moving in society with their heads high while they sell their votes.  Votes are not saleable item, it is priceless item not meant for sale for Rs. 1000/- or 3000/- or 5000/-.  In such a situation I don’t think we are fit to be an electoral democracy.  Unless we are economically sound we should not not go for electoral democracy otherwise we  will prove that we are  the most stupid creatures on this planet giving everything to our politicians who like barberians are exploiting our weakness to the maximum and thus become richer and sricher and we are becoming bankrupt. Shame on us for allowing our leaders to exploit us.

 

In One of the local Newspapers in an interview he gave, Vijay Sardesai the man who played the most foul game  in Goan politics 5 years back by defecting to BJP inspite of promising openly that he  will never,  indicated his remorse  offering his apology.  Vijay, you are so stupid that I pray to God not to give a son of your type to any of the Goan parents, such a wicked you are. The damage that you did for Goa by defecting to BJP is of such a colossal magnitude  that its  effects has created very bad results for the benefit of Goa and Goans and in the bargain you benefitted tremendously while those  who were sincere and opposing you suffered immensely.  Do you care for such apologies, these apologies are like jokes for you, being a politician you are accustomed to live in such a situation,  you have already robbed us Goans, I feel ashamed to call you a Goan, it is a shame on Goans to associate with you.  After defecting,  you made so much of money and obtained so many benefits, can you return everything that you gained during the last so many years you were in the Ministry during your time of holding the lucrative portfolio under Parricar?  My dear Voters from Fatorda Constituency  you still have sufficient time to teach Vijay Sardesai a very good lesson in the voting romorrow, knowing his situation is very bad to get elected he took refuge in the Congress Party another party of crooks who accepted Vijay in their fold.  This is the job of Cheddio who are making us to dance totheir tune.  They take us wherever they go and like babies we are following them without any shame and on top of it we call ourselves as advanced people in India.  It is bort Congress need Vijay but Vijay need Congress and to get him a shelter of political nature he jumpped into Congress.  And by chance, once he is elected he will definitely act the way he wants thus proving that he is an illegitimate son of his parents      

The greatest defect in our electoral  system is the defective law on defection, it is giving lot of scope to play on this law, it requires some changes which the Centre must initiate if it wants our political and democratic system  to work properly.  The little change brought in it was in the aftermath of Indira Gandhi’s  assassination  when Rajiv Gandhi became the premier but that is not enough, hence Central Government with its power in the Parliament must initiate the change otherwise Centre must not blame those Indians who are asking for the amendment in this law, by calling them as anti-Natioanal.  Anti-National are those who want to create disorder in our political system by making ill use of the Defection law facility. We Indians had to sacrifice the life of one of our mighty world renown Prime Minister Indira Gandhi to initiate a minor amendment in the defection law, if she was not assassinated Rajiv Gandhi would not ascend to her throne.  Because he occupied her chair he went into the amendment.  Now do we have to wait for another assassination similar to what we already had to bring in the required rigid amendment into this law of defection?  As it is, all the bastardised Law makers are reluctant to do this job because they  are the promoters of defection.  

So, many benefits are promised by the so many political parties to the people of Goa once they form the government.  But will it happen?  Will those parties  come to power?  Do they have the power to woo the voters towards them and to vote for them  in the tomorrow's election and form the ministry in the second week of March?  Fighting  an election is not  fighting with your opponent  with “Sannicho Mundo” nor with  Uzeachem Agttem”  though I wish everyone all the success. 

Finally, let us all go for voting and do our duty appropriately. But I have full confidence in our Voters that they will do the justice to their precious votes and act accrdingly at the time of voting.  Meantime, I have strong faith in God and in the prayer which can do any greatest miracles of the type we get in the Biblical Book of Jeshua.  It said that when Joshua wanted  the nSunlight to fight the battle against his enemies he had no choice but go on his Knees and pray very fervently to God to keep the Sun Light intact without going down since the  time was approaching it to go down in which case Jshua would lose his battle.  Listening to his prayer  God who is omnipotent kept the Sun intact for 24 hours without moving an inch further till Joshua fought his war AND GOT THE VICCTORY. So, let us ALL THE FAITHFUL PRAY FOR ALL THE GOAN VOTERS TO CAStT THEIR VOTES  TO THE RIGHT CANDIDATES WHO WILL DO JUSTICE TO THEIR JOB IN THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY.

WHO IS THE GOAN & WHAT WILL BE HIS DUTIES DURING THE ELECTION?

1: WHO IS THE REAL GENUINE GOENKAR?

 

He is the real son of his real Goenkar father who was fathered by his Goan parents.

 

2:  IF HE IS THE  REAL GENUINE GOENKAR, WHAT HE WILL DO  DURING THE COMING ELECTION?

 

AS PER THE GENUINE GOAN TRADITION, HE WILL MOVE IN THE FOOT-STEPS OF HIS ELDERS AND ACT AS UPRIGHT COME MAY WHAT BECAUSE UPRIGHTNESS, TRUTHFULNESS AND SINCERITY ARE THE HALMARK OF ANY GENUINE GOAN.  THE REAL GOAN WILL IF NECESSRY EAT FOR HIS SURVIVAL  EVEN GRASS BUT NEVER EAT SOMETHING GIVEN TO HIM ILLICIT.  ANYHTING ILLICIT AND GOANNESS NĒVER GO PARALLEL TO EACH OTHER. THEY ARE BOTH OPPOSED TO ECH OTHER.

 

3:  WHOM THE GOAN WILL VOTE IN THE COMING ELECTION?

 

If he is the real genuine Goan, he will vote for the most democratic, most secular and the most liberal party/CANDIDATE THAT INDICATED ITS/HIS EAGERNESS TO WORK FOR THE UPLIFTMENT OF DOWNTRODDEN but he will never vote and re-elect the DEFECTORS WHO BY VIRTUE OF BEING DEFECTORS ARE RIGHTLY CALLED AS “JUDASES”.  THE BIGGEST JUDAS  is the one – the Fatordecho JUDAS  who expect us to remain totally dumb for the most  criminal act, the heinous crime he committed in company with his two other “JUDAS” COLLEAGUES FOR  WHOM THIS TIME BY GETTING DETACHED FROM FATORDECHO JUDAS  are contesting separately in Saligao and Siolim respectively.  If voters from Saligao and Siolim are true  as described above, they will  teach them a very good lesson. As it is as per my innumerable friends in Siolim, there is something great upheaval  going to take place for one of the  candidates in addition to the former defector.                                                                   

                                                                  

4-WHAT WE THE GENUINE GOENKAR EXPECT FROM ALL THE VOTERS IN THE CONSTITUENCIES  WHERE ALL THE  DEFECTORS ARE CONTESTING?

 

As the genuine Goans, we  expect the voters there total boycotting of all the  defectors who first of all got no right to recontest the coming election.  They by defecting committed a big sin and for such sins there is no escape from the severe punishment.  The voters must boycott all the defectors and showing some leniency towards their wicked sins they cannot vote them.  If they are given one more chance, what guarantee is there that they will surely NOT  repeat their earlier defection once again? 

 

5- HENCE, VOTERS, PLEEASE VOTE WISELY.

 

MEANTIME, CONGRESS HAS NOT DICLOSED THE NAME OF THEIR CHIEF MINISTERIAL CANDIDATE YET KNOWING THIS PARTICULAR  ISSUE OF NOT SETTLING THE NAME OF CM IN ADVANCE BROUGHT ABOUT THE WHOLE DISASTER ON CONGRESS PAVING THE WAY FOR THE “CHOR” BJP TO COMMIT THE CHORI OF CM.

 

THE ANSWER TO THIS  CUNNINGNESS : There is a conspiracy on certain people to make somebody who is undeserving the CM.  There must be silent move within the Congress circle to bring in as CM somebody who is not an original Congressman.
