Hi folks! People of Goa have given mandate to BJP Govt to govern Goa.They are doing their utmost best. They have done lot of development and still doing. Give them a chance.
Why you people come on the road to shout. Tomorrow if elections take place, you, the people who come on the road will be the first to vote for BJP, no matter they do good or bad for the state and for the peple. People coming on the road to shout are to be blamed first and not BJP. BJP follow their manifesto which they had placed before the voters before election. Give them a chance. Goa is vey small, some parts of Maharashtra specially the border states will join Goa and that Goa Govt will see that these borders states are well developed. And more to see.

The BJP government's sudden and unexpected decision to convert the Panjim M= unicipal Council (PMC) into a corporation, and extend its geographical limi= ts to far-flung panchayats (in another taluka) has triggered protests, bund= hs, morchas and rasta rokos here these past two days.=20 The government managed to bulldoze the City of Panaji Corporation Bill 2002= through in the Goa House late on Monday night. But it is unlikely that the= bill's notification will see a facile passage, going by the host of protes= ts from affected panchayats. Suspicions have been roused over Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar's real mot= ives in springing the bill in the backhanded manner it was done. Mr Parrika= r argues that with the growth of urban agglomerates around Panjim, a counci= l lacked the teeth to provide civic services. "A corporation has a lot of p= owers and can deliver." The bill, fashioned on the London Burrough Council = Act, would make the system more efficient, he says, and promises that "genu= ine" objections will be considered. What has annoyed the Opposition though, is that the new Bill seeks to appro= priate panchayats from Congress and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) consti= tuencies into the corporation (four Congress and one NCP MLA would be affec= ted), even as it attempts to reconvert existing Panjim municipal areas to a= panchayat to appease the BJP's ally the United Goans Democratic Party (UGDP). "This is nothing short of political vendetta and has been done to undermine= the population of the village panchayats. Where was the need to bring the = Bill through in such a hurry? Neither the panchayats concerned or the PMC h= ave moved a resolution asking for this," says Congress spokesman Jitendra Deshprabhu. Deputy CLP leader Dayanand Narvekar sees a design far more sinister in the = BJP move. He alleges that Mr Parrikar, who is the MLA for Panjim, would be = keen to add the 8,000-odd voters from the Porvorim-Succor area to the Panji= m constituency, because a sizeable chunk of them are RSS supporters. These = voters are at present in Mr Narvekar's Aldona constituency. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-W-E-B---S-I-T-E-=-=- To Subscribe/Unsubscribe from GoaNet | http://www.goacom.com/goanet ================================================================== For (un)subscribing or for help, Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dont want so many e=mails?
