Convenor AAAG Sabina Martins called for amendment to the Goa Gambling Act to do away with casinos. “We have written letters to the 189 panchayats asking them to write to the CM stating they don’t want casinos.” Martins said people have to tell their MLAs it would be difficult for them to get elected if they don’t vow to scrap casinos. “It is important we shake these people politically. We will not vote and ask people not to vote for leaders supporting casino culture,” she maintained. Anand Madganvkar said whether legal or illegal gambling in any form was not welcome. Goa was a place for dumping all the obnoxious things of the world, he stated. We have spoken to Dr Wilfred de Souza, Manohar Parrikar, Shripad Naik, Babush Monserrate and Victoria Fernandes who are all saying they don’t want casinos. “We want to know who all are the ones saying yes,” he added. Advocate Rui Ferreira said Jesus too physically drove away those gambling in a temple. Goa too was like that holy temple that could not be desecrated and gambling on casinos was hurting religious sentiments, he asserted. Advocate Avinash Bhonsle without taking names lambasted some of the CCP councilors, who, he alleged, were betting for casino operators. He chided the CCP for allowing display of casino operators’ boards illegally. AAAG have threatened to tighten the agitation in the days to come and seek explanation from the Government over the number of casinos that can be seen operating in river Mandovi. http://www.oheraldo .in/pagedetails. asp?nid=16850&cid=26 VIVA GOA
