Dear Percy, Greetings from the 'Gift-Away Land' We Goans are a funny lot, aren't we? If the house and the property one has worked, sweated and died for was to be gifted away by some industrious crook called the Government one of these things would happen in these places: PUNJAB - a blood bath where they do not want to share even their water. W. BENGAL - Burning of public property like buses and Government offices. TAMIL NADU - Another Veerappan would arise to maim, kill and abduct. KASHMIR - Parliament house with the parliamentarians blown up to kingdom come. KERALA- Government ministers would be on permanent Yatra outside Kerala. GOA- Kneel down to say " PRAISE THE LORD" and put up a 'welcome to my house' banner. BTW in the "Meeting of the minds - LOK ULOITAT to be held at CARITAS on 20/Nov/04 (4 P.M.), John Philip Pereira, special attorney of the Comunidade of Nagoa (Verna) will speak on "Ambedkar Awas Yojana" and its disastrous consequences for Goans.
