[Goanet] Public grand swearing in ceremony

2024-06-09 Thread Nelson Lopes
Swearing in ceremony

For the very first time the swearing in ceremoy was a public function on a
grand scale.The ordeal  of dignitaries  and public is palable .They had to
watch  the whole ceremony  patiently  in silence and had no active role.The
crowd enjoyed cheering  their own candidates .
Is the expense  on foreign dignitaries their travel  ,stay and treatment,
security could well  have been avoided.   The spectacle,  a drain  on
public exchequer could have served a better purpose  The self publicity
only a moment of glory for the  politicians to revel in wasteful
expenditure.
How does the normal procedures of swearing in the precincts of Parliament
 make any difference

[Goanet] Modi is an facilitator of coalition

2024-06-07 Thread Nelson Lopes
Modi as an facilitator of coalition

Modi with  a streak  of authoritian attitude will have to adjust and
accommodate. In the back stage BJP will strive as in the past to
destabilise vulnerable  parties into surrender but by  pursuation and
incentives rather then pressures of  agencies . MODI  will have to be
patient before he can strike. Hence it will be calm before storm. The
elections coming up  in states will have bearing  on the BJP. The
contentious issues like Art 370, RAM Mandir is a reality to be agitated .
Uniform civil code and Hindutwa agenda will have to be torned down.
AUTHORITIAN decisions will no more be force  down  the throat .The
opposition  will be on fierce watch  and NDA also has its voters to be
concerned  to play second fiddle without resistance  not necessarily  at
break point.The opposition cohesiveness as of now  is doubtful  but
politics is an art of impossible. Whether Modi who was introduced
Margdarshak principle will apply  it to himself and fade into political
sunset or defiantly refuse to be indispenasble knowing his hunger for power
and populism? The fear  of re election weighs heavily on everyones mind and
is not an option.For the moment NDA with BJP  will want to wait and watch
period,instead of precipating a crisis  of uncertainty. Whether the ruling
dispensation will be satisfied with sops of office. ,Rumblings are an
indication not to taken for granted.The political situation is in fluid
state  with BJP trying to balance aspirations of allies  with long-term
implications for BJP

2024-06-04 Thread Nelson Lopes
Congress defectors rendered  impotent

The Congress defectors twice have been rendered impotent and ignored for
their political worth .  First time defectors en mass have been drowned in
political waters.The reasons for selfdevelopnent and self preservation have
not enthused the voters .They may have got respite from persecution
,financial bonanza  and hounding by the agencies.The voters have not
shifted their allegiance  with defectors  but maitained their independent
decisions The BJP was heavily betting on the strength  of Congress
defectors to secure win in the South.The RG has been spoilt sports of sorts
with marginal gains without much dent. The heavy weight in Margao in
political wilderness has  suffered low down in his popularity
It is evident that voters  do not follow defectors like a pied paper but
maintain their indecent decisions

Election outcomes
The expert pollsters have all gone stray in their studied  predictions  .It
is to the credit of wise voters who have shown preference to Democracy and
freedom. The avalanche  has not happened and char so par is an abject
disappointment   Another serious meditation or sanyas is eminent.  Voters
are not fooled with slogan diets  and mandir politics have backfired
.Politically Indian voters have shown their maturity as they broken the
backbone of the party and shown them the door. It is a serious  warning to
the rulers embolden by hatred, indifference, Rising prices ,unemployment
and crimes  against the  women.  The clamour  for change in constitution ,
Hindutva push , uniform civil code, CCA,  jailing opposition,
 including CM's,curtailing freedom of expression  being highly sensitive
even to mild dissent,  hounding citizens through the instruments of ED.CBI,
arms of police  without taking diverversity  of India  into
consideration.Even some judicial prouncements have not enamoured
citizens.The citizens had been taken for granted by some sops to poor and
wooed  women voters .The undeclared emergency has played havoc with the
fabric of independence,  democracy and its values .Indian voters have
sprung unexpected surprise to assert themselves.It is stern warning to all
parties as the BJP is checkmate because of the arrogance of stake holders
Modi guarantee as  of an individual is absurd
India is alive and kicking .Meditation a right choice under circumstances

[Goanet] A salute to mothers in laws

2024-06-04 Thread Nelson Lopes
Human approach most welcomed

It is  most gratifying experience to make the life of others happy  by
being magnanimous  in  our attitudes , behaviour and actions. It is a
gesture of selflessness  towards the other being .First  it is a  personal
sacrifice

A NEWLY wedded couple was in for a big surprise .Within months of happy,
love  marriage  the husband was diagnosed  with  terminal stage of cancer
and passed away within a year.The wife was heart broken , shattered and
desperate  .The sweet mother - in - law , inspite of her sorrow stood  by
her ,comforted her and convinced her of life ahead without being lonely
.She motivated her to begin her life afresh .It was on one such occasion
her husband  good friend proposed to her.She was shocked and taken a back
 and refused politely .She confided with her mother in law,
Who encouraged her to think very seriously ,forgetting her sentimental
feelings about her own son  .The decision was not very easy but both the
families  supported her to take the opportunity of a new beginning .
Fortunately   she had no biological  issue   and encumbrances .The society
may not be very receptive to these actions, but finally it is their own
life and they have the right to make their choice . They were married the
mother in law giving her away at the church ceremony. It was a tearful,
happy occasion for all
In another similar example the newly married couple had  grandiose plans
for their  future .Unfortunately within six months the husband passed away
in an accident .The  grief stricken mother in law was very supportive of
her entering into a new life, as she had long years ahead. The daughter in
law  did not appreciate her idea and wrongly presumed that she wanted to
get rid of her . After a year and constant prodding by mother in law she
finally  changed her mind  and decided to share the rest of  her life with
her husband friend, who was most willing to be her life partner.  Initially
there was fierce opposition from girls family, but mother in law stood like
a rock  for her and persuaded her to go ahead, which she finally did  .Both
the husbands were bachelor .As of today they are a fine   adjusting couple
living happily together  with their families
They maintain friendly and cordial relations  with their mother in laws,
who made a difference to them
THE third example   the husband expired living a young  bride and a child.
The girls parents were a  strong force  of motivation  but the mother  in
law was reluctant and un supporting . The selfish reason  being  her own
security,   disguised as concern for  the child and family inheritance .
The husband was also a bachelor  . In all the 3 examples they have children
of their own and are living a harmonious life without any stigma or  caring
for social disapproval
How wonderful that the society is changing it's hard attitudes and there is
a new horizon  of  appreciation ,accommodation,  acceptance  of reality
.The maximum support must come from both the parents  without being selfish
about own security,  wealth and inheritance issues . These examples are
really inspirational agaisnt  aged old  traditions and customs which offer
a  new ray of hope and promise in the lives of unfortunate  widows. The
admiration for mother in laws, thinking out of box  and obliquely is rare
as their   memories of  sons cannot be dismissed
MOTHER IN LAWS ARE NO MORE SWEET AND SOUR, DEVILS  OR CONSIDERED HINDRANCES
IN THE LIVES OF DAUGHTER IN LAWS

Leena Lopes (51J)

Twice informed that our preference was for  Non veg.Inspite of it Leena
was  served veg.It was refused.on enquiry informed about non avaiability
and no request indebted  for Nelson as per his phone records . AGREED that
tickets include meals .Leena aged 79 years served veg .and   was asked to
serve at least  non veg. But  she was forced to  manage with a  bowl of
fruits from tray  for whole journey. I was denied  and am 81 years .The
flight in charge of service took 2 hrs from 10.15a.m to 12.50 and citing
air turbulence. HE remained indifferent  ,arrogant , silent and did not
answer why non veg meals were not served inspite of ticket including it  as
was  on forward journey
Is this the approach of staff in charge  even when I  volunteered  to pay.?
Is this  the treatment to be  meted out to senior citizens ?. It was a
disaster chosing  Singapore airlines for an experience
It ruined our most memorable Trip  ,never to opt for Singapore Airlines .
The kiosk for tags non functional got one out of 3 and self loading only
one bag loaded trying 3 machines .Finally the other 2 bags were checked in
at the counter .EFFICIENCY at Singapore Departure terminal was lacking and
unbelievable for the reputation of premier airline.
I will patiently await your response within 15 days before giving wide
publicity  for unacceptable service inspite of payment to aged senior
citizens  and taking up the issue with IATA  ,besides negligence of denial
of paid service in flight if situation so demands and is forced on me

Fires cause of human tragedies
The joyful outing  at Rajkot gaming centre turned  out to unimaginable
horror for parents and loved ones . The arrests of owners  and compensation
is symbolic gesture to douse the fires of grief.The intense blaze has
charred bodies beyond recognition to give the victims an honourable burial
The Delhi neo natal  hospital has snuffed out lives before they could see
the dawn
The arrests too post incident is a  cruel  joke on the victims and
survivors
In India lives do not matter.Immediate  and rigthful arrests  are of those
of negligent authorities , who have wilfully  overlooked basic requirements
of safety and sanctioned approval to these esranlishments and definitely
not without gratification. Periodic  checks have also been given a go bye ,
if the safety measures  were  in place  That is the  bounden duty of
establishments. These are n the only Departments responsible for
deriliction of duty .Chasing the shadows is the favourite pastime of
authorities responding post incidents  with postmortem to apportion blame
How could the Rajkot site  have been  certified without emergency exits,
 fire extinguishers where innocent children gather ?  How could the neo
natal facility sanctioned without verifying guidelines, staff  etc
The authorities now are barking at the wrong tree ,when the culprits are
Govt Depts and concerned staff  Arrest them and suspend them. Investigate
how they  overlooked essential parameters and guidelines  Are not periodic
checks mandatory?How the expired licence was in operation for over two
months?

Apprehensions about election outcomes
The voters are anxiously awaiting  with bathed breath the verdict  to
unfold  .BJP exudes confidence of returning to power with NDA.The INDIA
block with support in Karnataka, West Bengal.Delhi   and Southern states is
expected   to reduce the margin and spring a surprise.The social media
posts indicate the anger of voters for communal hatred, unemployment,
crimes against women, galloping prices and persecution of minorities
,threats to the opposition.Whether the views of literate as against vast
majority of others will make a dent is the speculation. There are serious
doubts about sanctity,fairnes  of the  process. The ECI seems not to  be
sure of votes cast and SC is seized of the matter
Rumours predict large scale  unrest, protests ,if the verdict goesc  either
way. In the history of independent India such speculations were rare.BJP is
riding on a popular wave of RAM mandir, as it refrains from claims of
report card. Modi ki guarantee is really amazing  .BJP is bereft of Modi
and constant tirade against Congress is a paranoia
Nevertheless always change keeps legislators on  toes and that is  fear
that drives   down their spines

Everything seemed well ,just going right
Unfortunate illnesses  a monumental battle to  fight
Surged  ahead courageously   with determination, and  hope
Life's battles  with  trust and faith to cope

Life's companion  a praise worthy choice
 God's blessing in family a gift to rejoice
Built  family bonds  with love and  care
Celebrations of joyous moments   to gladly share

As Headmistress added respect, admirationto her name
  , prayer services, social work  ,as toast master enhanced her fame
Professional placements of children a great joy
Her pivotal role in the family affairs  did enjoy

An affectionate  humble person   loved  to share
Concerns for all had time to spare
Earned admiration, respect and love
Her life A gift, a blessing from above

Departed on the day with  indelible mark   of joy and sorrow
Regret her absence for a better tomorrow
In silence bore insults and pain
Scars of hurts etched in her mind  forever   remain

We dearly miss, close relative  and best
Pray God may grant her eternal rest
As brides maid , Godmother  fondly recall
An educationist, wife, mother, relative stood tall

The priest in the family treated her with due respect
Brother in law and family admired her in every aspect
To everyone Winnie  remain a wonder
To fathom depth of grief ,loss is agony to ponder

Headed the  biggest DSE school  with ease
Her superiors in humility ,obedience did please
Numerous intelligent toasts she did  raise
Prayer services, church activities ,as social workerneed praise

A day of joy she marked with sorrow
There is no hope for a better tomorrow
Bonnie  wades through an ocean of pain
The longings, pleasant memories forever renain


Efforts in vain  to blank her memory in mind
Winnie a precious person impossible to replace or find
Her sweet memories  to my children forever remind
A loving  niece, concerned and kind

Winnie has etched memorable memories

 Life , death live memories behind
wonderful presence  of Winnie, forever remind
Last chapter in her book of life not over
Strong belief, faith  to fully recover

Early signs  of wellbeing filled everyone with hope
Determined,  resolute life battle's to  cope
On the  most memorable day always did rejoice
Silently embraced  to mark the bitter choice.

Welcomed all with smile and warm embrace
Accepted joys ,sorrows with God's  grace
Honoured,privileged  to be the best  family face
Failed to keep pace, lost last lap of  the race

Mother.daughter in law bonds matter of pride
By her experience,  wisdom  did abide
Mother daughter like relations so very close
No conflicts of stress , adjustments  did pose

Planned children careers  with care and love
Happily settled with blessings from above
Bonny anchor of strength and support
Made for each other couple enjoyed best rapport

A leader in the family  bonded with relatives and friends
Well versed with social  ,educational, religious  trends
Accomplished in the role of Head ,  wife,mother , toast to raise
Climbed atop the ladder of success worthy of praise


Suffered   deep humiliations with lips sealed
Scars remain  though wounds  are  healed
Concerns ,affection of parents do not sport label  of cost
When Trust is under cloud  everything is lost

Winnie never complaining, a person to inspire
Her helpful, affectionate nature  proudly  admire
Her company in any role is  joy and fun
Flexible  ,elastic  to accommodate with everyone

At home, school, society a leader best
Surmounted obstacles in a fiery test
Feathered  with love family nest
 After life' s  labour  ,God invited   her to rest

A Godmother, a bridesmaid ,memories to treasure
A self made  Winnie her achievements source of pleasure
A warm, affectionate  person  eternally missed
 Abandoned us all , when sting of death  she kissed

 Life , death live memories behind
wonderful presence  of Winnie, forever remind
Last chapter in her book of life not over
Strong belief, faith  to fully recover

Early signs  of wellbeing filled everyone with hope
Determined,  resolute life battle's to  cope
On the  most memorable day always did rejoice
Silently embraced  to mark the bitter choice.

Welcomed all with smile and warm embrace
Accepted joys ,sorrows with God's  grace
Honoured,privileged  to be the best  family face
Failed to keep pace, lost last lap of  the race

Mother.daughter in law bonds matter of pride
By her experience,  wisdom  did abide
Mother daughter like relations so very close
No conflicts of stress , adjustments  did pose

Planned children careers  with care and love
Happily settled with blessings from above
Bonny anchor of strength and support
Made for each other couple enjoyed best rapport

A leader in the family  bonded with relatives and friends
Well versed with social  ,educational, religious  trends
Accomplished in the role of Head ,  wife,mother , toast to raise
Climbed atop the ladder of success worthy of praise


Suffered   deep humiliations with lips sealed
Scars remain  though wounds  are  healed
Concerns ,affection of parents do not sport label  of cost
When Trust is under cloud  everything is lost

Winnie never complaining, a person to inspire
Her helpful, affectionate nature  proudly  admire
Her company in any role is  joy and fun
Flexible  ,elastic  to accommodate with everyone

At home, school, society a leader best
Surmounted obstacles in a fiery test
Feathered  with love family nest
 After life' s  labour  ,God invited   her to rest

A Godmother, a bridesmaid ,memories to treasure
A self made  Winnie her achievements source of pleasure
A warm, affectionate  person  eternally missed
 Abandoned us all , when sting of death  she kissed

[Goanet] Winnie an epitome of admiration

2024-05-11 Thread Nelson Lopes
Winnie.epitome of admiration

Everything seemed well ,just going right
Unfortunate illnesses  a monumental battle to  fight
Surged  ahead courageously   with determination, and  hope
Life's battles  with  trust and faith to cope

Life's companion  a praise worthy choice
 God's blessing in family a gift to rejoice
Built  family bonds  with love and  care
Celebrations of joyous moments   to gladly share

As Headmistress added respect, admirationto her name
  , prayer services, social work  ,as toast master enhanced her fame
Professional placements of children a great joy
Her pivotal role in the family affairs  did enjoy

An affectionate  humble person   loved  to share
Concerns for all had time to spare
Earned admiration, respect and love
Her life A gift, a blessing from above

Departed on the day with  indelible mark   of joy and sorrow
Regret her absence for a better tomorrow
In silence bore insults and pain
Scars of hurts etched in her mind  forever   remain

We dearly miss, close relative  and best
Pray God may grant her eternal rest
As brides maid , Godmother  fondly recall
An educationist, wife, mother, relative stood tall

The priest in the family treated her with due respect
Brother in law and family admired her in every aspect
To everyone Winnie  remain a wonder
To fathom depth of grief ,loss is agony to ponder

Headed the  biggest DSE school  with ease
Her superiors in humility ,obedience did please
Numerous intelligent toasts she did  raise
Prayer services, church activities ,as social workerneed praise

A day of joy she marked with sorrow
There is no hope for a better tomorrow
Bonnie  wades through an ocean of pain
The longings, pleasant memories forever renain


Efforts in vain  to blank her memory in mind
Winnie a precious person impossible to replace or find
Her sweet memories  to my children forever remind
A loving  niece, concerned and kind

[Goanet] Power hungry label

2024-05-09 Thread Nelson Lopes
After being in political wilderness for 7 decades, BJP cannot now
relinquish  after tasting power.It is ludicrous to attach power hungry tag
to Rahul Ghandi.  MANMOHAN  had openly stated that he is holding  the post
of PM. for Rahul as and when he decides .Rahul never even accepted the post
of Minister in the cabinet.He resigned Presidentship of Congress Party
accepting defeat  of the party. Any post in the cabinet was to his
asking.BJP is simply speculating about Rahul as PM waiting in wings. BJP
has set upper limit of 75 years,. Will the PM  adhere to this principle or
cite indispensability  and strenghten power hungry label.

Wait patiently in hope

Today the analysis of outcome is speculative exercise  and food for the
channels .Voters  are naive to speak the truth.The so called  waves
infavour or against cannot be accurately  predicted by pollsters. Every
party  is sure of win. There is a lot of anger brewing  up.The voters want
to register their displeasure and send a message.Promises unfulfilled and
empty slogans are in for a surprise.There is a strong possibility of
results  being unpalatable. Voters are mature to be taken for granted
.Silence and non commital is safety not to incur backlash and create enmity
with neighbours and friends .Voters as a matter of rule proclaim winners as
their choice..Wait in vain to register your displeasure for next elections
. What guarantee the history will not repeat  to your disadvantage  The
voters will have to swallow  all that has been happening once again in the
name of religious pride and continuing indifference and hatred against
minorities  .every dog has its day and  so will BJP, considering the
simmering discontent that isunfolding slowly .  Let us wait in hope for the

Post elections the temperatures seem to drop


Inspite of soaring summer temperatures  ,the atmosphere is calm and cool
post elections.  At least tonight the candidates and their supporters have
good night sleep. The fate is sealed. The candidates are waiting in bathed
breadth hoping the victory will be  in their favour.Till results are
declared every candidate is a potential winner. The tensions  of guarding
the ballot boxes  results  in anxietiesof sleepless nights.Cameras and
sealed rooms  are no guarantees  that can be  relied upon .Hence the
vigilant groups of candidates  maintain 24x7 watch .Past rumours of
tampering with ballot boxes, switching with doctored ones ,and ballotboxes
with votes were found strewn over.
Results or otherwise  accusations will fly thick and thin   of tampering by
the loosers .  Recounts provides little hope unless the margin is
thin..Postal  votes often tilt the margins. .The official declaration  will
prevail unless challenged in the court of law.
The winners will vouch for fairness and lovers will suspect the authencity
of victory.

[Goanet] Elections and propaganda

Elections and propaganda

The party that can splurge funds beyond prescribed limits has a fair chance
of victory. Private candidates in future will not be able to match the
resources  avaiable with major parties Independepents are mostly  promoted
by main party candidates  to split the votes. The Congress is crying hoarse
for being deprived of funds by freezing .Opponents are shut in
prisons.Massive raids are carried on against the opposition  .Voters are
wooed by incentives of cash and kind.Others are threatened  and prevented
from voting  .It is an unfair advantage that this time around the voting is
stretched too much.The propaganda period  should  be  fixed dates no matter
when the elections are held
Booth capturing, bogus voting, invalid votes are reduced so is the
counting  time.But various examples are doing round how the votes can be
manipulated. AS countries like Japan UK, USA highly advanced countries have
prefered ballot, why are we latched on to machines  Why does the Govt not
ready to tally the VVPAT with votes  registered   If after elections
representatives can switch sides what is sacred about voting. The tenure
should be fixed maximum for two terms  The power of recall be introduced.
Changing sides should be banned, reelection  be made compulsory, such
candidates be made to pay  the cost of reelection
ALL INCOME must be taxed like other citizens   VOTERS MUST INSIST ON THESE
REFORMS OR REFUSE TO VOTE

2024-05-06 Thread Nelson Lopes
What after vote is cast

Pre election, voter king  filled with pride
It is sacred duty emphatically chide
enamoured with right ,duty vote is cast
Importance and worth of citizen is last.

The right  for errant electors to recall
Forfeit ,ban, reelction not order tall
Representatives must have experience  qualification to serve
Tax free ,huge monetary gains do not deserve


No legislator beyond 2 terms  serve .
Women as per reservation  representation deserve
Candidates with criminal records  find place
Representatives with such cases is disgrace

Elections must focus on progress done with plans for more
Stinging character assassination alone comes to fore
Election  campaigns are at all time low
Position and status  not issues provide the glow.



Voter has absolute no say after vote  is cast
It is your privilege  ,right last
Wait  for long 5 years to vent your ire
Boiling with discontent  under fire.

Representatives power ,privileges reap
As demagogues, orators seek publicity cheap
Prostrate, genuflect at their feet
An appointment to greet or meet.

Representatives then bask in glory
Forgetting promises as past story.
Voters alone propelled them to power
Some crumbs here and there they shower.

[Goanet] Votes that matter

2024-04-28 Thread Nelson Lopes
Votes matter
Goa has just 2 MP's and if that number is insignificant  then  why  a busy
PM of India is investing his time in Goa.? He has already  blasted a
broadside warning  for the rest of India that Goan minority  embraces
secular  BJP.On the face of it is apparently true as twice Congress MLA',s
shocked the electorate by defection to share company with BJP enmass
Goa' s  mineral wealth is plundered by mining barons and loot is yet to be
recovered,besides the environmental degradation is unprecedented.Goan's are
on a war path to avoid double tracking to prevent environmental damage. The
emphasis on coal import  causing  dangerous pollution of health hazard, is
to the benefit of Adani and his business  partners. Whatever precious land
resource  is left is being   bartered  away by landsharks in conivance and
fast tracked by our Govt.
The over developnent is sounding a death knell  to Goan identity and
putting a strain on water, electricity, resources ,road congestion and
climate changes  due to destruction of forest cover
The victory will embolden the BJP to run roughshod  to strike at the very
foundation of Goa called paradise and pearl of orient.It will facilitate
their hidden agenda to erode the foundation of Democracy through the subtle
means appearing to be innocuous  Resistance  is  a must to overcome
threats to freedom  a majoritarian rule  and to maitain checks and
balances.As defectors have strenghtened base in many secular constituencies
they are under  severe pressure to   demonstrate  their allegiance and
worth by fixed quota of votes  to continue their existence .The purpose of
candidates  seeking mandate has to bejudged  with track record  of
closeness to the power that be and their interest of preservation of
hegemony of rule of monopoly
Vote wisely for the party candidate with proven  credentials Goa as a
destination of over exploitation tourism, mining  residential heaven is not
favourable to the residents feeling the brunt

Revolutionary outfits  are like mushrooms  with fleeting  existence of
nuisance value.All such parties  have vanished  in thin air Goa congress,
save Goa  among few .They survive and flourish  temporarily with clout of
the leader  .They cannot change the landscape of Goa ,forget about
altering  National scene  where their outreach is least.It is a platform
for personal agradisement  to promote personal cult. They also aid division
of votes by secret  understanding for financial windfall with dominant
parties.Those who vote on emotive issues ,without an alternative and are
financial donors are under an illusion of their ability to  deliver the
impossible Most of the time such outfits appear to fill a gap and fill a
political void and vacuum  Often the reaction  of voters   is due to
disappointments  of crossing the floor by defections or poaching . The
defection en mass has led to springing an outfit promising to work in the
interest of Goans by barking loudly. Barking dogs seldom bite and party in
power knows that stopping at lone barking canine  can derail forward

VVPAT

Japan the  inventors have stopped using voting machines.England ,USA have
discontinued  too.The voting boxes are in the open and transparent
too.Ballot  papers were stamped en mass. Booth capturing was rampant
.Bogus voting was  a prevalent malady.Counting was tedious long
process.Invalid votes were a cause for worry..The voting machines  seemed
to be an option and  a solution .Doubts of manipulation led to VVPAT  and
select tallying. Today technology can monitor send commands over billions
of kms and machine respond to commands. Hence  the process of voting
machines  tampering is in the realm of possibility. If doubts cannot be
raised now why VVPAT was introduced ? Scores of demonstration show votes
cast are seen in  VVPAT window but process of registered votes and final
tally not with what was seen.
An easy step demands to tally with VVPAT slips but final tallying will
still match  with slips  and number of  votes cast as what is seen in the
window cannot be verified.   Those who are forced to check are not
qualified with intricacies
What was possible is to count all VVPAT even though it is time consuming
but time of  counting is not the factor of great significance as the
process of voting is spread over months .At least it would to some extent
satisfy the demand to assure Trust in the system. Even in protective
custody there is scope of manipulations under security  of lock and key

not comparable  .Voters have realised their false promises .BJP has only
been raising dust  about Congress misrule and flogging leaders of repute
.The only reason for them to cling to power is religion and spreading
hatred and pseudo Secularism. The debates are only fanning diversions. Core
issues are put on  the back burner.One Nation one tax, one elections are
myths that are  propagated .The cost of living for common man ,prices,
unemployment ,women safety and emancipation have reached monumental
heights. Statues , temples . Vistas project.revocation of art 370,common
civil code ,CCA   do not feed the hungry but are divisionary  tactics

food  grains to the  marginalisef ,if citizens are raised above poverty
line .? Issues like island of Shri Lanka,Manmohan speech years ago cannot
turn clock back. The inroads by Chinese into Indian territory, Aurunachal
Pradesh  , Pakistan disturbances of terrorrism, etc are of grave
concerns.What is the contribution of RSS to freedom struggle ? Experienced

elections   drives mortal  fears up their spines and only time politicians
prostrate and gennuflect .The citizens are terrorized by use of ED.ITax,
CBI.The high and mighty are in jails without conviction and charges .Only

Words are pearls of wisdom

When a person  is holding responsible , high  position,he should weigh his
words very  carefully .Once spoken they canot be retrieved.Much damaged can
be done due to misunderstanding  and misinterpretation .It can also
destroy the credibility of the speaker .Dignity  expected  and respect one
commands ,thoughtful considerations is paramount in our utterances.Person
in high office cannot act  like a clown or comedian to generate laughter
by use of cheap vocabulary. Such jibes might produce peals of laughter  or
thunderous  sounds of claps and applause
.Appeasement to basic instincts  has limited value.Criticism  must be
carefully articulated  to avoid prrsonal  attacks  to maliciously lower
image in public eye .Those in high office must realise   the futility  of
derogatory   ,  demeaning   , subtle remarks to evoke   sympathy  to win
applause.  and strike at character assassination .Such cheap  gimmicks and
mean behaviour   shows the opponents  in a bad light  in order to crush
dissent  and opposition
The disparaging utterances,  caustic remarks are seen  towards opponents
 are speculations of unfairness.  Those in power  ,position  assume their
role as not negotiable or discriminatory
How  best do defeat the process of  winning  is not easy to decipher  the
process. Jokes or encounters are no substitutes  for reasonable
accomodation
for healthy adjustment ,rather  then adopt  blind  positions to enhance
pivotal positions in the face of  reality
Powerful speakers do not entertain  but enlighten  ,educate .Leaders of
repute choose their words carefully  not to offend  or hurt anyone's
feelings .Words are like piercing swords that must be used selectively and
wisely to deliver a message  without authoritarian arrogance of status or
position of power

How  best do defeat the process of  winning  is not easy to decipher  the
process. Jokes or encounters are no substitutes  for reasonable
accomodation
for healthy adjustment ,rather  then adopt  blind  positions to enhance
pivotal positions in the face of  reality
Powerful speakers do not entertain  but enlighten  ,educate .Leaders of
repute choose their words carefully  not to offend  or hurt anyone's
feelings .Words are like piercing swords that must be used selectively and
wisely to deliver a message  without authoritarian arrogance of status or
position of power

[Goanet] Nari shakti

2024-04-21 Thread Nelson Lopes
Nari Shakti
The appeasement of women is a battle  cry of elctions season.Women are
treated below the last cast category   It is a fact that women are not only
50% of voters, but are more determined to vote in large numbers. WOMEN
voters can tilt the scales of victory and margins.It is grim picture
regarding  girl foeticide,  sex determination dowry deaths, malnutrition
ofgirl child , education, trafficking ,  divorces ,ancestral property
rights , child marriages, employment disparity in emoluments ,rapes,
murders etc are not a focusof priority
There are some specific schemes of  women and Girl centric.and these are
tailored for vote bank politics. Women have no religious roles, no
membership of organisations like RSS,Bazrang Dal. Central Party  execurive
membership.In State  Assemblies, Raja Sabha, Lok Sabha reservation of
33%plus is not enforced either for election or  ministerial position One
women  PM.,President Finance minister is a formality .BJP does not have  a
single  women CM .Mahila Mandals spring up during election season ..A mere
reduction in gas price,or doles  are  to woo women voters and not women
empowerment .Schemes of free  education,  free bus rides, Scholarships ,
matrenity and health care, nutrition , women entrepreneurs, self help
groups, widow remarriage ,domestic violence ,banning of sex detremination
tests, age of marriage for girls   ,employment openings  in armed servies
are welcome few  measures emeliorating  their woes.Their predominant role
is restricted to child bearing and rearing  and back breaking domestic
chores.Much has been done,  but much more remains  to be done for women
.Education,
 liberation and empowerment
Education alone leads to upward  mobility in all sectors.No focus in
Manifestos on women issues

[Goanet] Gravitating towards BJP ?

2024-04-20 Thread Nelson Lopes
Gravitating towards BJP?

Goans have not conferred majority. The rise to power in Goa is by poaching
and defections. Those treacherous traitors, elected on Congress platform
after swallowing sacred oaths  have deserted  for windfall  allurements and
threats  of exposure of skeletons   of corruption of  ill-gotten wealth
,disproportionate  to legitimate   known ,verifiable income.Almost all have
lost their seats miserably  in  re elction , except those with personal
clout .The second batch has still to test the turbulent waters of people
anger and  Trust.Some others who pride themselves  sporting of BJP label on
their lapels have criminal background to defend, besides use of freebies,
muscle power and cultivation of  migrant vote  banks through gross
irregularities .The rise of local outfit is in frustration to teach the
scoundrels  a lesson and lack of  altrernative and option.not because they
subscribe to party ideology .
BJP  all over India is carrying on vociferous,  malicious campaign  ,
vandalisation of religious places  ,harassment unprecedented killings of
minorities   in history .The polarisation process on religion,   hatred ,
indifference and intolerance is no attraction.for those  believing in
secular,   Democratic freedom .It is a myth  to allege popularity of BJP
when a volcano of disappointment is waiting to explode. In Goa victory
does not add up to arithmetic calculations or make any perceivable dent.The
lure of central representation is in consequential  both during  Cogress
and  BJP, except in the case of Parikar. short lived tenure of gratitude
and raising ofBJP flagship in Goa

[Goanet] Promises of utopia an illusion in elections

2024-04-20 Thread Nelson Lopes
Promises of utopia an illusion in elections


Elections
 a season to sell  a dream
Parties at top of voices with conviction  scream
Guarantees thro manifesto  promise  the moon
Post elections  all assuarances evaporate soon.

Parties not candidates  decide policy
 Promises  on behalf by aspirants is hypocrisy
No responsibility , accountability after lections ions
Voices are stifled by poaching,  intimidation  ,defections

Judge track record of candidate  by action
Emotional response to gain is convenient reaction
Power of vote is lost once cast
Wait in hope  till 5 years last

 Excuses, alibis in galore doled
By deceit ,false hood maximum votes polled
In every elections honest voters fooled
Post elections rhetoric gets cooled

What is the  option voters can demand
Post Elections electors all the  power command
Outcome of victory  profess not by your vote
Note for vote   is politicians famous quote

A verbal contract of promises  cannot  enforce
Legal  option or recall out ofcourse
Suffer in humiliation ,helplessness is recourse
Forced to swallow results for better or worse

It is not easy to make a valid choice
Our precious vote has a  limited voice
At best choose the lesser evil
Spot woolf in sheep clothing ,the devil

Post elections voters have absolute no say
Parties ,MLA's  chart their own way
Easiest is to flow with tide
Emotions, expectations,  aspirations best to
hide

In a democracy majority  has the  way
Minority at best  has its say
Voters concerns  are  kept at bay
Parties in their wisdom,experience decide
The right to decision and power in them  alone reside.


Undecided  NOTA  safe option to tick
Confused ,unsure candidate to pick
In the past  too vote  has been taken for  granted
Legislators  are at liberty to jump the wall as wanted

Every action right or wrong
In the interest  of voters  their favourite song
Repentance  is what you can dearly hold
Voting alone  is sacred duty  we are told

Results of voting can cause inherent guilt
Happiness ,disappointment  in system inbuilt
No party  your concerns will ever  address
Wail ,mourn , protest  ignored for redress.

[Goanet] A hobsons choice for voters

2024-04-19 Thread Nelson Lopes
A hobsons choice..Voters are on  a horns of  dilemma .The Congress
legislators have betrayed the voters by massive  defections  two
consecutive  times.It is better called poaching not without allurements of
a lifetime windfall. Notwithstanding threats and intimidation, example to
nail Kalap. The excuse and alibi of developments  ,except self, personal
developments ,which is there for the  blind to see.If they can with scant
respect for voters feelings , change their ideology at a drop of hat, what
guarantee can be expected once elections are over? They are kings of all
they survey and not accountable for their acts of treachery after being
elected  .The conditions then and today are not much different .  Voters
are fools to remain glued to their ideology   permanently inspite of being
let down twice in a row  and therefore wise  voters to make their own
decisions  based on reality .These selfish individuals are busy feathering
their own nest and will follow the  current trends with impunity.Once
bitten twice shy is worthy of taking  independent choice .Raising emotional
flags of minority persecution is the best and only flavour of the season .
While voters are  are goaded to save democracy   Congressmen are deserting
the sinking ship across India  ,sorry to say that MLA’S,' are the culprits
of destroying democracy and constitution by irresponsible, selfish
ends.Congress elctors have made mockery  of voters sentiment and it will
not be taken for granted anymore with all the persuations .There is always
a choice with voters  and not be swayed with empty rhetoric anymore .All
the political wisdom  does not rest with party or the aspiring aspirants  a
promise to deliver the moon.  A disappointment once again will  of the
making of voters themselves .How are  the voters  expected to trust

[Goanet] Migrant bashing during elections

2024-04-18 Thread Nelson Lopes
The so called  tirade against migrants is rank opportunism and at best
uncostitutional .Creating furore in Assembly is playing to public
galleries,   self promotion and is  illegal to be supported by
legislation.Enforce the existing legislation fiercely.The Voter cannot be
registered in two places at the same time  without certificate
ofcancellation  What is need of the hour is to have One data base for
voters  in India . The migrants faithfully rush towards their native places
and trips  are financed .Goa depends heavily for their work force in all
sectors , domestic , industrial cheap labour..Indian migrants contributing
towards exchequer are spread all over the world  in huge numbers.
Who has issued Voter identity cards  ,ration cards   without cancellation
proof ? .They serve as  captive vote banks. Who has turned a blind to
mushrooming slums ,residences without documents  ofowership and are
provided electricity , water, connection officially and house numbers?
Legal steps can be initiated as per laws in force to evict  land grabbers
 and all other subsequent illegalities  No separate legislation against the
constitution is  required .to throw dust in eyes  to promote aspiring
legislators as saviour. It is canard  for constitutional law as against
enforcing existing law to redress the

HOW much has been achieved to improve the conditions with every party
promising the moon in exchange for our vote to propel them in the seat of
power. Supporting financially to tune of crores by expatriates is misplaced
trust with hope.. NOTHING substantial has been achieved  and will be so in

[Goanet] Metallurgical coal is smokescreen of Palavi nomination

2024-04-15 Thread Nelson Lopes
It looks simple , an emotional appeal that a lady is promoted for South
Goa  Lok  Sabha to hype and drum up  support. Apart from Mrs Sawant .no
credible  candidate was insight.Palavi has no political credentials, except
backing of her husband's  political,industrial  and financial clout.
Metallurgical coal supply chain expertise ,  currently worth over one lakh
crores ,is windfall gain ,  controlled by Adani and Dhempo.MPT is the
important link in supply chain to 16 iron and steel  manufacturing  units
in Hospet ,where Adani has over two hundred crores   large investments
exposure to sustain .The backing of Central Govt and Railway Ministry is
crucial to facilitate imports and distribution of coal and her victory will
facilitate liaison  Hence Palavi is  the pawn  in the grand design of coal
factor.The recent defections of Congressmen  gives her  an  illusive edge
of  sorts   The vociferous mounting campaign of coal transfer by road
 ,rivers  and railways ,its  effect on  pollution is shelved on the back
bench, including  contentious issue of double tracking.At rough
estimates  crores in the revenue generated by metallurgical coal imports
is 7 times higher than mining industry  .Palavi 's promotion to the hilt
is  to garner revenues of coal imports with the backing of central Govt,
Railway Ministry and MPT Goa link .The business interests of Dhempo ,Adani
group are at the heart of her candidature.The  emotioal  appeal for first
time lady candidature  is bull  wash be warned

[Goanet] Illegal demolitions

2024-04-12 Thread Nelson Lopes
Illegal constructions proliferation is bane of Goa's housing boon.The cries
and heart wrenching  wails of Sangolda residents  evoke sympathy and
emphaty as human beings caught in crossfire of law. Plight of 600 homeless
residents close to moonsons is pathetic. Look at the illegal bungalow
standing tall at Old Goa. Protests ,hunger strikes ,legal remedies have
failed to move the authorities into action. Defiance of law and statutes
needs no mercy but different set of standards  for the marginalised poor
and rich raises doubts of partiality. Why are the local bodies spared ,
when  they deliberately overlooked  illegalities without title?.How licence
was  issued  or connections of water,  electricity and house numbers
perpetuating illegalities by encroachments on  private, commuidade land .It
is not figment of imaginations that bribes and illegal gratification  have
not been exchanged to overlook willful  violations of number of units.
Those culprits  guilty of direlections of duty to enforce compliance to
rules  must equally  be subjected  to strict scrutiny and exemplary
punishment. Facilitators must be booked and do not condemn law enforcement
agencies for doing their duty

The wife deserves a loving embrace
Bear hugs to others a monumental disgrace
Love or arranged, value her  respect and honour
Inhuman to abandon her and  suffer in  a corner

Tormented and hurt, helplessly   waits in hope
Uncertainties, mental cruelty separation  to cope
Honourable and legal recourse  is divorce
Sets both free to  a new relationship  to enforce

Social stigma of abandonment, pain of wife
Wonder without iota of remorse or  guilt in life
The wife is pivotal  in the unit of family part
Gratification of embracing everyone else   an illusion start

Relationship  of husband and wife  ,a value and  character
A unit of social fabric that most  matter
A family springs ,blossoms to grow
Adjustment, commitment   husband need show
.

Unity of Nation  tied to family  as unit
Inability to maitain values one is unfit
Respect and love for family basic aim
Professing without following is  tall claim

A husband inflicts loneliness by living apart
 Is devoid of emotions with a  stone heart
Wallowing in pride  of being just and fair
Cruelty of  arrogance fills the air

Educated,employed liberated   wife
Rides  roughshod to progress in life
Husband use of financial, emotional  blackmail
 ,determined ,firm wife  coercion of no avail

Adoption satisfies mother's instinct to care
Marriage no sacrosanct children to bear
Wives  daringly  flaunt equal rights
Invoke legal options   to enforce relationships fights

Illiterate ,dependent wives forced to bend
 indignities  ,tortures  did withstand
Husband irrespective of status, time must spare
 Daily chores and responsibilities bound to share

2024-04-06 Thread Nelson Lopes
Regrets in life of dying  individuals
It appears that in  a study by a nurse looking after   terminally ill
patients  have documented  some  but  almost similar regrets.The regrets
are not about wealth, property, or any other  precious, material
possessions  in life .It seems strange but true and hence dying sadly with
such regrets are best avoided
Regrets for  not being able to  share  maximum time with those whom we
loved most, ie family , dear and near ones due to preoccupation with  and
preference  to  other issues. .Regrets for actions, behaviour , attitudes
 being controlled and   hindered  by opinions ,judgements,criticism  of
others.Regrets are haunting, bad  memories of   having reserved
unconsciously  expressions of emotions of  gratitude  love, thanks ,to
friends , etc.Regrets are pronounced  of inability to keep in touch with
ease thro an  ocassional  message  ,phone , sometimes with people who mean
so  much.Finally the worst regret is we are so much  concerned and
sensitive to the feelings, happiness of others  around that our own
happiness was sacrificed  and denied   wilfully and intentionally .
It is best to forget than ruminate over regrets that ruin our happy state
of mind .We live just once  so I cannot be replaced by WE Hence I& We must
coexist  happily together

First April  designated as April  fool
Pranks appear  real and cool
Unpectedly to pull over wool

Sometimes so serious the fun
Forced to walk or  made to run
Unexpected pranks surprised everyone.
Some believed  the  gospel truth like none

The newspaper will close from  today
Transport is on strike they say
Innocent people  hope and pray
Turned out to be jokes to lead astray

At times the jokes  were serious
To check the veracity , were not curious
On April fool day  were  taken for a  ride
Joys of deception no reasons to hide


Messages looked true and real
Coming as  from close friends not trivial
A little fun meant to enjoy
To deceive and surprise the ploy

April  first people are aware now
Difficult to surprise  anyone somehow
The fun is lost and so the charm
April fool pranks  continue ,intends no harm

[Goanet] Live our faith beyond rituals

2024-03-29 Thread Nelson Lopes
To all who swear by faith in Christ .  He died on the ignomious cross with
excruciating pain .He resurrected 2000 years ago. Yet and inspite of edict
from the Pope  ,Catholic hierarchy still in a sadistic manner  want to
remind the progeny of the gory past. We need to celebrate and rejoice over
the resurrection that is hope for the sinful  community . Nothing will
change or has changed by  glorifying the horrors of crucifixion. Do we as
humans celebrate or recall our worst events?.we want to put a lid on our
misfortunes not recreate or relieve painful, sorrowful  situations. Are we
reformed , enlightened Christians living his message of forget  and
forgive.70x7 Our best faith is seen in ritualistic traditions to emphasize
our adherence  to faith . Why do we still want to hang Him and gloat about
his sufferrings. In what way   can we  proudly say that we are  his
followers.?  Are we following in  his footsteps  in life in  letter and
spirit  his message .?Love your neighbour as thyself. God as we believe is
not likely to seek  an account  of what we  have achieved for  the  growth
of catholic  church but how  we have done to others as we wish to be done
to us  to make  life liveable.  Our greatest  achievement is to very
faithfully attend traditions,rituals  and customs to keep the establishment
of church institutions intact .Why did he die ? There was no self
glorification or profit motive .He wanted to give us deliverance .Life of
christ is in service of others curing the sick,resurrecting the dead,
feeding the hungry  , fighting temptations, fearlessly preaching truth not
from confines and luxury of churches but in the open  air  on top of
mountains , meadows and by sides of rivers wherever people lived. Our
sinful selfish lives are concentrated on ourselves ,giving as little as
possible  to suffering humanity  Our famous , free and costless ways are to
pray ,because it's cheap and best means   of  propopagating  faith .When
half the humanity anywhere is dying with   thirst, hunger, without shelter
and clothing  we just follow traditions and engage in prayers .we do not
want to hurt ourselves and deny  the luxury but wade in wealth and honour.
What have we  to be proud  off to tell christ what we done to follow his
commandment  of  love thy neighbour .As catholics we are hypocrites taking
shelter in ritualistic  traditions very minutely..  May we we donate
lavishly to build, renovate  beautify His places of worship  and profess
that house of God deserves the same respect  as our own palacial  dwelings
to justify our great sense of charitable dispositions.  Let us review our
faith in living as christ preached.  Be a better catholic  not going  to
churches and temples  but sharing our maximum  to ameliorate the wellbeing
of our fellow humans  irrespective of his faith

[Goanet] You have a choice in NOTA

2024-03-24 Thread Nelson Lopes
NOTA IS THE CHOICE

People say vote for good candidate and that is a sacred duty  not to waste
your right. The parties force the choice on voters and  slavishly  must
abide with decision.
ALLEGIANCE ,loyalty to the party will be the compulsion. Voters are
ignorant about reasons for selection   never made public  but left to guess
with your personal and intimate knowledge about the integrity  character
that will not matter.How  to choose the lesser  evil is what expert
prescribe from amongst the rotten apples.But NOTA  is the only option to
protect your dignity, but is of no consequence  with its limitations.Voters are
but pawns on the chess board of politics either to vote or abstain.The
multiplicity  of parties and candidates are creating a confusion in the
minds of voters.Besides allurements fuel the choice.Some say receive a part
of what they make and make your own choice.Either it is treachery or wisdom
of deceit or both.An effective suggestion is to vote for  a new face , a
new party to drive the point  of preferring a unknown devil to a  known
Saint ,immersed neck deep into corrupt ways for personal agradisement of
great magnitude .Only a change always is way forward to crush the hegemony
of parties and perpetual aspirants   who have  made and aspire to
perpetuate  it as lucrative profession and career
Voters must put an decisive  end to this circle  of continuity  called
dynasty

Elections and selections
Democracy is all about elections
Much depends on right selections
 Multiple Candidates provide a choice
Candidates are foisted not much to rejoice

All parties,Candidates  promise  the moon
Disappointment sets in soon
Winabilty factor,  muscle power nominate goon
Reelection of same candidate considered  boon

In democracy elction a necessary evil
Choose known Saint or unknown devil
Vote  candidate, party to change
Democracy benefits in exchange

cash and kind  used voters  to allure
Deceptively victory to ensure
Status of  a king untill vote is cast
Importance  ,significance ends fast

Parties or candidates, self  interest the best
Get elected, for 5 years in peace rest
Reasons galore, no provision to recall
Better or worse like monkeys jump the wall

Expenses through corruption will recover
Surprised, disappointed to discover
No qualification, experience for this profession
Boundless wealth accumulation a mission.

Maximum two terms should  be a clause
Their  unlimited greed and avarice to pause
Defections  impose permanent ban,  stay Poll expenses  on by elections
must pay

Voters  opt for one of the  rotten apple
Confusion of preference  to  grapple.
Personal emotions clouds  choice
Sacred duty,  right to exercise voice

Luxury to  greet you  and privilege  to meet
Later  plead, prostrate at their feet
Any favour, or equest will cost
Grease or bribe them or get lost

[Goanet] Voting a sacred right and duty

2024-03-24 Thread Nelson Lopes
Voting is sacred right and duty
Parties decide candidates choice,
Voters have absolutely   no voice ,
Candidates are often SSC  pass ,
Highly educated object  to voting  third class .

Candidates need waste resources to spend,
Defect, switch over, Parties will  lend,
Corrupt can splurge   unlimited resources ,
Then resort to recover from all sources,

Assembly is not a theater  to sit and enoy,,
Like  backbenchers in class relax with joy,
Tiatrics at question hour, is  best  show ,
to contribute to legislation ,debates must know..

 Did participate publicly on contentious  issues  that affect?
 Overconcerns on  roads, water, electrivity to create impact,
Presiding, raising toast ,inauguration  best act
Unemployment, rising prices , never  react.

Voters value character integrity ,past  to pick
Unsatisfactory choice  NOTA   option  to tick
Defectors, party hoppers  are enticed   for sure
Recall, suspension, ban on reelection,  cure  ensure.

Politics business,  a lucrative  profession ,  career
qualifications  ,experience  age  are  no barrier
Emoluments ,water   electrivity  travel   etc are tax free
Service for a day   , pensions  can't agree..

Reduce corruption ,  clamour for avarice greed ,
Limitation  of  two terms is the legislative  need
Exploitation, amassing   wealth is the creed
Politics attracts ,lures   hordes of new breed

Power, position, benefits  are enticenent ,lure
Evils associated with political power sees no cure
Democracy continues to flourish  with ignorance
Freedom of speech  ,liberty  ,  religion ,subjects of intolerance

[Goanet] Why we should we vote ?

2024-03-24 Thread Nelson Lopes
Why should we vote?

Democracy  a  system, the QUEEN of political beauty ,
Voting is   citizen's sacred  right , duty,
Vote to usher in   difference   a  , new change
Not  to be enticed  ,lured in exchange .

Change a best  hope with new party and face ,
Retaining over years, old garbage is disgrace ,
Permanent allegiance, loyalty to both  must end
Enough is enough  a clear message need to send.


Politics is  business,  profession of enormous gain ,
Qualifications ,experience ,age  no criteria main ,
Position,  power, perks , attracts  like  bees to honey ,
Avowed desires to amass wealth  and money.

Politicians change parties at sweet will  ,
Goa is a model in  this unique political skill,
Defection for development  in  voters interest they state  ,
It is personal enrichment by switching their hidden  taste.


Two terms  only make their last page,
60 years  for all  be  the retirement  age,
Discard those frequently  jumping parties wall,
Family Raj, criminals ,corrupt be made to fall.

Vote for qualified youth to be employed  extend dole,
Social schemes of  appeasement burn  a hole,
Rising prices, , safety of women , and intolerance,
Vote to select people of integrity  not  nignorance .

Vote those who constantly public issue raise,
Candidates  with education,  character , passion need praise,
Shun Candidates watching the Assembly  the show.
Question hour tiatrics , walk outs ,best they know.

Vote out   those who  revel to inaugurate, Preside or raise toast,
Weigh past   ,present  social records   and empty boast,
Monumental  assets  ,desires to accumulate  financial gain,
Vote to send a message it is time up ,end  to remain.

Vote not to repay personal ,petty favour ,
Judge the  continuous efforts  and fruitful  labour,
When promises and manifestos , dead remain
 What guarantees  Assurances  to be fulfilled  if elected again


Losing is the only threat and anxiety they fear
Once elected acts as kings  ,future prospects secure
 For any favour, service ,   plead at their feet
Arrogantly  avoid,  explain inability to meet

Most popular quote
Wonder who wrote
Vote for a note


Vote for any bribe
Corruption you subscribe
Blane to politician ascribe

Why do candidates buy or  pay
An incentive to Vote say
Wages of  5 years on one day


Candidates search  voters in vain
 Power  ,position,  perks to gain
Once in 5 years never to  be seen again


Politics a profession attractive as honey
Age, qualification   no bar to earn money
Politics  sure  a most profitable journey


Voting is termed as solemn duty
carmouflaging as right is the  beauty
Post elections ,promises  turn empty

Once sacred Vote is cast
Importance vanishes fast
Voter as priority then  is last

Legislators  fight  in power to renain
The  gain is worth  all temporary pain
Use bribes as carrot, threats as Cain

Politics   an investment asdures best returns
Multiply  wealth  by defections and U turns
Attractive proposals difficult to spurn .

Enjoy unlimited popularity and fame
Swallow criticism  insults  without shame
Discredit politics  calling it a dirty game

Wives, husband's  daughters  sons iin fray
Right not dynasty   a worthy choice they pray
Intentions  motives  to unfold need no Xray

In short period accumulate  with ease
Any number of terms greed will not cease
Bend, ,prostrate, beg ,plead  voters to please

Parties  want to  remain in power and  expand
Exploit grievances   with outrageous demand
When in power  respect  popularity command

Nominate candidates who will win for sure
Prefer criminals  , corrupt   or morally impure
Defections   poaching by parties forced to endure

Anti Defection bill  ineffective made
Loopholes exploited  the   law to evade
 Speaker   delays decision by a decade

Democracy with all its  still a better choice
Empowers to raise even a feeble voice
Democracy a system of Governance to rejoice

2024-03-22 Thread Nelson Lopes
Right  to vote is sacred in Democracy

Voters are woed to vote to protect democracy ,albeit  to secure  interest
of politicians to make politics as their best career .After voting is over
they are not bound to voters and their stock answer  in the interest of
growth is an unconvincing  canard.  Most of defecrors are in the limbo
after grand entry into the party.Do they jeordise their future  and self
growth without  monetary  or positions.? Black money fuels the defections
and wantom poaching with threats of investigations.True every politician
has skeletons in their cupboards.The wealth amassed by politicians is envy
of industrialist and business tycoons. Voters must  wisely  alternate
parties for checks, balances and  transparency. Elections alone send
shivers down their spine..The position is steadfast on EVM, but counting of
VPAT is no big deal .Refusal  smells foul manipulations as  been
demonstrated . Restrictions to two terms maximum is another measure to
controll greed for power. Poachig,  defections can be ended by change of
statutes  forcing  to seek re elections.Our  votes only legitimises
entrenchment in the system  .Voters consent is taken for granted
 Vote must ensure change in  healthy democracy. The witchhunt is only
against opposition parties and freezing of accounts and arrest of CM's on
the eve of elections is deliberate scutling of level playing field.The
religious divide ,hatred and indifference is a red signal of wellbeing of
institutions of Democracy.The unravelling of  electoral Bonds  shows the
heights of corruption and reasons thereon.

2024-03-21 Thread Nelson Lopes
Change parties every election
Wisdom is to change political parties, that alone ensures transparency  and
purity. The elected party has either delivered or not delivered and voters
are under ono obligation to extend term with more attractive  promises.
CORRUPTION erupts when party gets entrenched . Consider the price rise of
all common commodities of daily use, unemployment, Women reservation bill,
CCA, crimes against women, selective persecution of citizens, division of
citizens on religious basis, hatred and intolerance, degrading democracy by
fear of threats, poaching by incentives, breaking up democratic parties,
personal attacks on critical politicians et all
Building of monuments  does not raise the standards of citizens  Think
wisely and always vote to change irrespective of promises fulfilled or
not.That way the parties arekept on their toes and prevented on making it
at career  The wealth emassed by politicians is envy of entrepreneurs,
Industrialists. The privileges enjoyed have no comparison to average
Indians  Think carefully and vote wisely

Dr Jack De Sequeira memorial Award

The well wishers of PC Trust from Chinchinim  initiated the  memorial award
for topper at SSC.GBSHSE.
The legislators  past and present, including political eminent persons
were personally , thro post  ,emissaries,even mailed duplicate appeals to
respond by 15 February 2024..Even  symbolic  response to  the the  appeal
was nil  ,except for Prof.Sakhardande unexpected generosity.As
collectively  and out of power berate the Govt  for non observation /
celebration  of Opinion poll,inclusion  in the syllabus,forget about his
statue  in the rightful place in the new Assembly Complex.Instead it is
decorated  with one who embarked on destroying the very identity of Goa by
merger . The ignorig  to participate in  individual capacity  in gratitude
was sad and  disappointing.In fact the only one who  was first  to inquire
and volunteered to join was contacted in person 3 times besides mails  in
vain." Ask not what country can do but what you can do for the country"
echoes  loudly.If   Goa  was merged then there would be just 2 MLA's ,one
MP. and one district Collector.Many of our political  stalwarts would not
have been even an MLA ' forget about being CM, deputy CM, Minister,
Speaker etc al.Some conspirators even self certify as builders of Modern
Goa. coferred with unprecedent state largasse.Ludicrous as one went on
beyond  politeness,decency   to raise dust of controversy and  the
propriety  of assigning  the sobriquet  of " Father of opinion poll" long
after  his demise and birth centenary  of Dr Sequeira, a visionary  whose
unanimous acceptance of  leadership  earned  unique identity of state of
Goa  , culture and language..The ungrateful, hypocrites and  beneficiaries
enjoy perks, privileges ,positions for lifetime   of Goa being  the state
.The grateful Goans have unreservedly  ,affectionately appropriated the tag
of Father of opinion poll and will continue  to adore him in their hearts
and minds.for all times to come.
Shayam Prassad Mukerjee and Atul setu  ,Parikar have found a place of
honour following  in dynastic principles of recognition..Even Mathany
Saldanha in contrast  has found a niche .One may pointedly  ask where and
in which State of India Dr Sequeira  will be recognised? How true a Saint
is not granted the privilege  of beig whorshipped  in his own land.Do we
shine brighter by putting out the light of others? By honouring others , we
honour ourselves. Dr. Sequeira never even remotely  sought crown  of glory
.He just faded away politically  with honour and dignity . In fact after
his defeat  he resigned from politics in humility and did  not believe   in
dying with boots on. He  has  never promoted selfinterests of creating an
empire with his influence or dynastic digging   in heels by the family.The
statues  at Calangute,  Dona Paula, Merces, Ambelim, the naming of the
road, the opinion poll square , the numerous CD' s that reverberate  his
achiements are all private intitiatives of grateful Goans.On his birth
centenary the isolated  event  when Indian posts issued an commemorative
stamp in his honour.The Trust  in collaboration with personal friends
,admirers  will never abandon the institution of an award  as  an
alternative idea  of  propagating his memorable  memory  for bequeathing a
legacy for posterity. No politicians worth the name has officially
participated in any of his celebrations but it took CM,' s of Delhi ,
Punjab  Shri Arvind Kejrival and Shri   Bhagwant S Mann  to pay homage at
his  statue  at  Ambelim  South Goa  on State visit  .
Dr Sequeira is a star shining on the political  horizon of Goa,not subject
to supernova effect .

Lentern sacrifices
The dynamic Pope Francis has  made a revolutionary statement  about
sacrifices  He has  emphatically advised to eat meat etc But he has
requested the faithful to change their attitudes behaviour and actions.
Free ourselves from vices of hatred ,anger, jealousy , envy and be more
forgiving .less caustic .Faithful specially during lent abstain from
alcohol ,drugs  etc but once the season is over they make up for it.The
period of concern,sacrifices  of denials and charity should not be limited
to period of lent. The sacrifice of giving money is the easiest practice,
but to give time to prisoners,   sick  in hospitals  listen to someone  is
most challenging.The westerners are mostly  non veg and one day of
abstinence is good for health .The Protestants offspring of rich buying
bulls to enjoy non veg diet and poor praying and sacrificing on their
behalf  .Each one has eyes to see ,ears to hear, the needy around us and
can individually practice the virtues of Charity without special envelopes
and boxes as it  provides  the assurance of aid going to most deserving
rather than relying unknowingly on wisdom of other authority.Listening to
woes, helping in daily chores , avoiding defaming criticising ,not avenging
wrong to us and forgetting past bitterness,freeing our mind of lust , filth
can  be a better sacrifice..All the years of lent and charity has not made
dent in our life.Our vices are uncontrolled obsessions  as an alibi.The
object is to be a  better person ourselves a deviation of past obsessions
If the desire for a change is not aspired  it will mean status co  with all
the pious recollection, retreats and confessions, which assume the role of
rituals without  meaning

Dynastic politics
It is a old issue  which has  outlived its impact of constant bashing.The
target undoubtedly   is Ghadhi family.The BJP is routinely fielding
 wife's,sons daughters ,daughters in-laws, son in   laws  ,of reigning
politicians as winability factor.  In Goa there are three pairs of husband
wife   in Goa legislature  and fourth is in the offing for South
parliamentary seat..It was a rare example  when Son of late Parikar was
denied the privilege..It is another matter when politician has no family to
wear the mantle or crown.BJP adopts double  standards  , turns a blind eye
in Goa , berating dynasty  paradigm.  Swasma Suraj daughter is being
promoted and in Karnataka son is considered as father takes on margdarshak
role. It is a  safer alternative to retire parents and to offer  on
platter  siblings like D Souza son ,a little known identity  in Mapusa
.When situations demands dynasty turns into amnesty and Goa State is the
all India  best example of practice of dynasty politics

Doubts about EVM
There is a serious speculations about tampering  of EVM. The benefits
outweigh the risks of being open for manipulations.Time and again
demonstrations have been show about vulnerability of these machines.  JAPAN
the investors  has given them up and so did  USA , Britain etc. The Govt
with brute majority is not likely to concede to overwhelming demands  of
scraping and replacing with ballot  papers.If time is the constraint  then
counting of VPAT should be insisted to verify the votes.It is said that 4
directors of Manufacturers of EVM's are directly connected with BJP  and
that factor enhances doubts about safety .

[Goanet] Male Chauvanism

2024-02-25 Thread Nelson Lopes
Male Chauvanism
USA boasts  and prides itself   as the  oldest Democracy. USA propagates
fiercely for  freedom,  equality  ,and crusades against racialism.When will
USA elect a women President?.  The post of Secretary of State is the
closest  ever to the seat of power.The election of President  Obama  is a
solitary incident of correction of historical aberrations of discrimination
and hope it will not be the first and last . The rest of the world have had
women PM, Presidents and India has made a bold move for reservation of
women .Equality of women in employment and pay is a far cry even in USA The
African American connotation is perpetuation of indirect discrimination
.Women liberation movements are just taking off.It is the education of
women  that bridges the gap  .USA promoting  itself as the Guardian of
democratic  values needs to act what it preaches. DOCTOR heal yourself , as
it protests against the ills of democracy and trying to assert itself for
the cause of democracy. The white supremmacy is the new virus sweeping USA
spreading like wild fire consuming USA as the  deviant leader .

[Goanet] India on a sleepery road of Nationalism

2024-02-22 Thread Nelson Lopes
India on a sleepery road of Nationalism
What constitutes Patriotism, Nationalism is new connotation of BJP. India
adopted Secularism against Pakistan preferred State Religion and the
progress is visible.Secular India according to our fouding fathers  is that
State has  no religion, nor support  but people have. The state therefore
must arbitrate justly and fairly  in case of a conflict  between religious
groups..The RSS with its political wing and other arms is toying tirelessly
to convert India into Hindu Rashtra  against the letter and spirit of the
Constitution of India. The intolerance and hatred  has ensured vertical
divide and polrisation with the   misnomer sab ke sat sab ka
vikas.Absentism at RAM Mandir was labelled as  anti Hindu. The fact remains
that BJP was at the fore  front with political high priest at the helm of
religious ceremonies and advancing consecration of incomplete
structure.Changing names is not patriotism and building monuments like
Morena stadium   , renaming others ,Vista programme and Patel   ,Shivaji,
Bose statues  , posthumous awards  , appointing   OBC  wonen and other
casts  candidates to high posts  just to make a point.Not a single  Muslim
candidate represents BJP.Some  Muslim spokesman, women represntatives  in
parliament , judiciary, police armed forces  , Republic day parades ,  a
minister etc  do not tilt the bias but are farcial  steps to pull whool
overeyes. The atrocities,   rapes, health of women , eduation   female
foeticide , equal rights, equal pay  etc are a far cry. The minorities in
India are under a threat, with places of worship vandalised and
institutions under  grip of tight  seize. There is undeclated energency.
OUR PM  is world traveller, avoiding press conferences and hardly
participating in Parliamentary debates  instead prefers soliloquy
throughMan ki bhat. Manipur is  burning  long  but
 for the  political opportunism  Bengal  opposition ruled state is set on
fire. Poachig and defection are engineered with regular frequency
corrupting Democratic process either with threats or inducements that is
majority by hook or crook. .The  manipulations  of recent Mayoral elections
is disgraceful  act of  manipulations .No wonder  lure of power and
skeletons in the cupoard compels to bend and genuflect forced to sing the
praises of PM,BJP ,progress as defense strategy.
In India the Muslims places of worship are under serious  threat, Oman
,Dubai  theocratic coutries show tolerance and encourage ,  provide sites
should make our eyes open to be tolerant and accommodating  towards other
religions. TOday any criticismdisagreement,   contrary view is treated
with dire consequences. The corruption charges  ,witchhunt ,detention are
against the opponents very subjectively.The Hindus  take laws  in their own
hands and  bulldoze residences delivering  summary justice.The worst
criminal does  not entitle the whole  family  to be punished .India might
have reached Mars   moon  , sun but  on the ground  the Nation is at cross
roads fighting to be united  irrespective of religious affiliations

[Goanet] Turbulence at Sao jose de Aereal

2024-02-22 Thread Nelson Lopes
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 .

[Goanet] Father of opinion poll

2024-02-19 Thread Nelson Lopes
Father of the opinion poll laid the foundation of State of Goa & Konkanni


He was born as Joao  Hugo Eduardo Sequeira alias Jack De Sequeira ,JAK
SIKER  in Burma on 20.4.1915 to Erasmo (Doctor) & Mrs Ana Julia de Sa
.Married at the age of 23 .After Lyceum  he joined Goa Medical College and
qualified as Doctor at 21years ,winning gold medal in Microbiology.Death of
his father when he was 21 made him to  abandoned  his passion for
continuation of  Medicine.He had to take over   the reigns of prosperous
business "Agencia E Sequeira"dealing in Bharat Petroleum pumps,Wimco and
other fast moving products.
He was first elected from Panjim and 3 times from Santa Cruz. Since he lost
at the 4th attempt, he gracefully quit politics in 1979  in humility.
Instrumental in forming UGP ,merging Goencho  Paksh,Partido  Indiano
,Democratic Party ,United  Front,& Goan National Union .Elected as the
First President of UGP and leader of opposition.He was a gifted
,charismatic leader,orator  delivering studied   discourses. Labelled as
principled, honest  ,generous,⁰
, intellectual ,distinguished politician hungering for transparent ,non
corrupt administration .The lingua franca at home undoubtedly was Konkanni
.In 1963 UGP won 12 seats and MGP  with 14 seats  formed  the Govt with
support..He thwarted  the hurried  move of MGP for merger by vote in the
Assembly.Delegations were led to P. M.Nheru wanting a cooling period of 10/
15 yeras, then Lal Bahadur Shastri and finally to Mrs Ghandi , who
sanctioned  mother of all referendum, first time  in Independent India
,instrument of direct democracy by people of Goa,  assuring outcome to be
accepted compulsorily by Govt of India .Date fixed on 16Jan 1967 by secret
ballot after dissolving the Assembly. He was assisted by various leaders,
Advocates  ,Poets,  Indudtrialists, Tiatrists, social workers,journalists
 followers of all religions working tirelessly to maintain  unique identity
of Goa.Salcette  sealed the fate  of two leaves by a convincing  margin  of
54.2% of votes confirming thereby that  Goa is not the backyard of
Maharashtra..He thus earned the sobriquet. "Father of opinion poll"The
author  who conferred that title is unknown  but appears that media
bestowed this title  ,wholeheartedly accepted by the people.There cannot be
two fathers  as in the case of Mahatma Ghandi  likewise being called Father
of Nation.He was not an astitute politician .Had he  supported K.B.Naik,
breakaway group of 7 from MGP  demanding CM post it would have been
requiem for ,MGP  .

. His vision along with dedicated leaders  preserved the identity of Goa,
culture ,language  and Geographical borders.Further his avowed wish was to
make Goa " role model  state in India" .January 16 is observed as ASMITAI
DIS.Goa thus became a separate state with Kon as the official
language.Opinion poll is not officially  celebrated,recognised  by the
State nor his  statue adorns the precincts of Assembly with Bandodkar,
inspite of persistent requests. If Goa was merged then there would be no
CM, but 2 MLA's,one MP and  one Collector.Politicians enjoying the
privileges of STATE should be grateful and at least officially perpetuate
his memory. The historical event is to be cherished and passed on to new
generations
A statue  in his honour is erected at Calangute on 16.01.2007 , Asmitai
Dis. Dona Paula  too has another statue  as a  landmark.Salcette  in
South Goa  has the first and the  only statue by Ambelim Panchayat  and
inaugurated on 10.12.2023 ,initiated by social activist Mr Anthony Silva
,executed by Velim Panchayat with the support of Eng Cruz Silva  first
time  APP MLA of Velim Constituency. .The road from Dona Paula  circle is
named after him.Countless songs remind nostalgically his legacy for unique
identity of Goa .Edwin Costa is his greatest admirer immortalised him in
Kon Albums viewd by lakhs of admirers along. with like Xavier Almeida,
Philip& Benny J Rebello,Santos deTaleigao,Jennifer Fernandes,Sigmund
D'Souza, Joe De Areal , Pierson e Areal Books and literature abound
documenting his legacy.A special cover is released by India Post 
on his  birth centenary .  It is sad that centenary celebrations were
officially marked by mute response
He passed away on 17.10.1989 at the age of 74. He leaves behind 3 sons and
6 daughters.Erasmo was an MP for 2 terms (1967 -77) and no other siblings
joined politics. Dr Jack did not object his 3 daughter's marriages to non
catholics
In honouring others we honour ourselves
The collaborated efforts under the leadership of Dr.Jack  cannot be wished
away by parochial considerations .Goans wonder why an individual bent upon
obliterating the unique identity and Goan  heritage is glorified in
comparison .The historical  aberrations needs correction Goans will forever
cherish his memory  for the   win of historical opinion  poll  that
bestowed  unique Goan Identity

Gratitude a virtue to be cultivated


Disappointments loom large  virtue is the distinctive  mark of individual
personality and best attribute and qualifications to wear on the lapel.
The attitude of gratitude  is the glue that  binds relations into
inseparable  bonds.It is noticed that behaviour and signs of indifference
of  ingratitude,  spring from only those recipients of this free largesse.
The   example in Bible  of 10 cured leppers  of curse is exemplified by
Christ .Only one of the ten returned to show gratitude .It is human nature
to ignore may be out guilt of indebtedness or feelings of uncomfortable
ness  for receiving charity .It is also  desire to forget the past and not
to be reminded  of pitable state .It  is absolutely normal to expect
ingratitude on our way and life  from all human contacts

The parents struggle to elevate the status of children through sacrifices
and self denial.Often  they return with ingratitude.Abandon  elderly,sick
and helpless to their fate.Parents are unwanted, neglected or assigned to
old age homes Many are dependent on public charities and social doles to
bear the bare minimum .Parents are harassed for their inheritance and
subjected to mental brutality and physical abuse.Parents never considered
gratitude  ,if they were certain of it they would have secured their
future. .The love of parents is boundless beyond expectations of
gratitude.The act of doing good is for goodness sake .The wonderful
attitudes  behaviours ,actions of some moves the world ,society to greater
heights. If expectations of gratitude were main  and only considerations
,then limitless charity at all levels would have grounded to a

disasters  wars, natural calamities without any knowledge of who the
beneficiaries are .The self satisfaction of acting with good intentions to
provide relief  to those in distress is in itself biggest reward .Gratitude
is not interest on fixed deposits on works of charity to draw as a security
hedge . Purpose, motivation ,inspiration would be casualty if gratitude is
sought as compensation .Parents , teachers  ,passionate social workers or
activists  are doing their duties for which they are paid.and hence there
is no obligation or favour to nurse   remorse in not acknowledging.  The
contrary is also  true not being bound and  to use their discretion of non
commitment. It  is said that only 01% may be responsive  at best ,but
acknowledgement is not pre requisite for charitable dispositions

There is no doubt that this virtue may be imbibed  by induction from
experience.It has definitively to be taught   .instilled at all stages by
conscious Our Trust enjoins on recipients to address compulsorily  a thank
you  within 7 days and students paid on receipt of it only . Thank you is
all compassing simple,  effective  means.This is the best expectations that
soothes the turbulent mind of feelings of ingratitude  .The false pride of
humility in acknowledging  favours even as obligations  need to be
discharged.Gratitude indirectly can be elevating experience and
inspirations to  continue with redouble energy.The sacrifices in sharing
resources, time, company, and words of appreciation and recognition  need
to be reciprocated .Ungrateful individuals are ashamed of their past
circumstances .Gratitude does not imply ,prostrating ,touching feet by
recipients or being indebted for life.. Gratitude is also displayed by
reciprocation similar acts  towards others  in  identical  circumstances.
An employed  student helped substantially  found excuses galore  when
requested to aid another .The negative attitude that it provided an
opportunity for self fulfillment is abhorrent.Charitable institutions fill
a void , because of inherent desire to assist those  destitute in need
.EXPRESSING   “THANK YOU” IS ALL THAT IS NEEDED materially  , by a simple
smile , visit  ,message or a call.

The virtue of gratitude in actions wins  lasting  friends   and must not be

[Goanet] Boy has just arrived

2024-02-13 Thread Nelson Lopes
Boy has just arrived

Blessings of the day

A day filled with endless joy
Thank the Lord  for the blessing of a BOY
an ocassion  to celebrate ,rejoice
Faith in  Divine  heard your voice

The anguish of parents  ,hearts desire
A child in the home  pray and aspire
New arrival fills an empty void
The disappointment of long wait  need to avoid

The test of patience  and belief
A test of fire. before He grants relief
A  father's responsibility  added  new
Requirements of mother ,child to keep in view

Demands  on time resources to spare
Welfare of both to nurse and care
Personal freedom to sacrifice  for family welfare
More than  finance  time must spare.

Priority now to wife ,child and home
Curtails  your interests, prefence to roam
Anxieties and tensions of health
 Need for additional accumulation  of wealth

Family ,colleagues, friends  rejoice
A gift of boy or girl is not a
 choice
A child  in the family  unites ,a crown
A child  a fountain of happiness  worries to
drown
