Good Governance and transparency Goa Government style. Last week the Election Commission ruled that it was not appropriate for North Goa Collector, Mr. Kashkamat, to be the Returning Officer for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections. Now, Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar has appointed him Joint Secretary, Administrative Reforms Department.
We can now expect Mr. Kashkamat to motivate some drastic Administrative reforms. Saffronisation of whatever little secular is remaining of the administration and granting of extensions as a matter of right to the Government's favorites regardless of how inefficient or corrupt the officer may be some of the reforms Mr. Kashkamat may pilot. As long as Mr. Parrikar is in power, Mr. Kashkamat can be assured of many more extensions. He may be a long way from enjoying retired life. It is an irony that officers instead of looking forward to enjoying retirement choose to hang on to their position of power without which they just cannot exist. Even an angioplasty or bypass surgery will not deter their greed. It has now been revealed that Mr V. P Shetye who after so many extensions as Law Secretary was finally appointed to a tailored position of Legal Advisor, is all set to return for yet another innings as Law Secretary Aires Rodrigues Ribandar ########################################################################## # 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 # ##########################################################################
