Well, as usual CM is doing a U-turn when it gets hot! Will he reimburse to state coffers, from his pocket, the tax payers 40 lakhs rupees which he liberally distributed to produce the disgusting VCD?
Avelino Bastora/Kuwait ____________________ From: "Gabe Menezes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sir, The writer has failed to grasp what the VCD is all about. It is about the fact that Catholic Religious symbols are being denigrated. Many will concede that there were atrocities committed in the past. What this VCD is espousing, is that present day Catholics in Goa are of the same mould as the Portuguese of the past and they should be feared and be sorted out forthwith, this is what is being propagated. The fact that the C.M. of Goa is now backtracking should be proof enough, for any one with a little intellect, to know that this was a deliberate ploy by him to create situation to exploit and put at a disadvantage Catholic Goans. This C.M. time and again chances his hand; pushing as far as he can go. He has no inhibitions backtracking and stating that he was misquoted or that his statements were taken out of text. He has in the past been shown as being disingenuous. One example was when he had to proffer an abject apology to the Courts for having made unfounded statements regarding Judges being in the pockets of some; this was not before many denials and blaming all and sundry for misquoting him.
