Goanet founder Herman Carneiro will be there. See you there! | ------------------------------ | | The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) has expressed deep dismay on the failure | of the Goa Government to officially clarify as to when the helmet rule would | be implemented and as to whether the proposed implementation of helmet rule | would include the pillion rider and the children travelling on two-wheelers. | | | MAG Convenor Premanand A. Lotlikar has urged Chief Minister Manohar | Parrikar to immediately divest Mr. Pandurang Madkaikar of the Transport | portfolio for mismanaging the helmet issue and especially in view of the | recent statement made by Director of Transport Mr. D.A Hawaldar at a recent | Rotary club function that the transport Department was very corrupt. | | | Mr. Lotlikar has stated that Mr. Madkaikar should take responsibility for | this sorry state of affairs and wondered as to why the Government which | after careful consideration had just a few months ago introduced two | exemptions to the helmet rule had now suddenly made a U-turn and decided to | make use of helmets mandatory and whether this time the Transport himself | had some vested interest to enforce the rule. | ########################################################################## # Send submissions for Goanet to [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # PLEASE remember to stay on-topic (related to Goa), and avoid top-posts # # More details on Goanet at http://joingoanet.shorturl.com/ # # Please keep your discussion/tone polite, to reflect respect to others # ##########################################################################
