Brewing controversy for polarization Martha's are a great force to promote Shivaji in Mahatashtra .A project costing crores is on the anvil in that state. In fact Shivaji Maharaj is adored as the reigning deity and has more than his share of respect and honour .Recently there was a clash in Goa between two groups owing allegiance to him.A forrt like monument is a grand tribute to his glory at Ponda. There appears to be a pattern at Polarisation about destruction of temples by Portuguese ,then rakingup contraversy at Sancoale and Govt. further allotting 20 crores of public funds for revival of Hidu temples reconstruction. The remanants of mergerist appear to stir passions. Sao jose de Areal is the flash point.The permission was for a stand or platform .Sligly a statue is erected in 100m2 of private land doated by a Muslim owner .It is in an isolated place on the top of the hill with no approach road.The Panchayat, Local MLA are not even invited. On the contrary a Minister is set to inaugurate an illegal statue officially and had to face ire of agitated locals ,who are neither admirers or devotees or have any knowledge of his great adventures in history of fierce resistance to Muslims or benevolent administration.It is a poor choice of site for such a renowned historian .The motives are a suspect as intentions of land development of wast landlocked property is plausible reason. It is interesting to know, as to who has funded the costly project . The Muslim owner who donated the plot tried to create motorable road with heavy machinery and without reference to the owner.The father of opinion poll is not officially recognised since 1967,or the Asmitai Dis is celebrated. All the political stalwarts with monumental contributions to Goa State are languishing into archives The CM's of Delhi and Punjab paid respects to Dr Jack Sequeira at Ambelim in Salcette on a state visit.The private functions officials of Govt are avoiding obeisance to founder of the state like plague. If public projets are taken without due sanctions of authority ,swift and legal actions be initiated against such perpetrators disturbing centuries old communal harmony between communities .
