Dear Mr. Bhatcar, Thanks for your explanation.
1.Normally we tend to always think that Goans are not serious in their profession or studies, very well said a goan has to be dedicated , cost is very high , books like Agarwal , an awareness is very important , either someone likes to do things because he/she is interested or because he/she is interested they like to do it. Everything is intense in today's competitive world, and given a chance you will soon see goans in these IAS/IFS/IPS fields. It is not as if that Goans are not interested in these fields, firstly open up this subject by defining it to the maximum to the Goans, some ground work is to be done, you just cannot say GOans should show dedication, interest, cost too much money , intense, half of the battle is lost with your words.It is like advising students please do not go for medicine because there are dead bodies , or do not study law because of xyz reasons.Just by availing Agarwal books you don't study on your own there are lecturers who can guide you. If you mean it is costly, so many industrialists, in goa ,NGO's some help from the Government, put up the proposal on this issue 'am sure you will get a positive reply, after all a goan in IAS/IFS/IPS or allied services will be in the interest of Goa /Goans and the people at Large. Mr. Bhatcar, i am like any other goan free to express that Goans are indeed a special breed, but i have not made any comparisions nor distinctions, every community is free to think it the way they want it neither you nor i nor anyone for that matter can stop my right of freedom of expression. Mr. Bhatcar , you got it wrong I have not mentioned about superiority , its like forcing your words in my mouth , you have your likes and dislikes and it is not compulsory that we should be on the same wavelength. Indeed there are places that treat indians as outsiders,if you invest in a country then you are a investor, but if you employ expats. in the positions which a local can do then you are looked down upon to the extent that your work permit is rejected. Why would you employ an outsider in your own country/state when there are so many locals who are jobless ?
