Where are all the custodians of law and order? It's a well known fact that they are blinded by wads of dollars.
But the intriguing part is how did they acquire deafness? Avelino Bastora/Kuwait ________________ RAVE RAGE CONSUMES SCHOOLS, HOMES, ELDERLY AND SICK: Imagine doors, windows and beds rattling, a booming non-stop reverberation, from what is like a combination of a thousand sounds, all through the night. Combine that with the wailing of infants, the cries of children and moans from shattered senior citizens. What could generate such a scary scenario? Just the 'famed' Rave parties at Anjuna. The type that, debatably, are held nowhere else in the world. Indeed, they happen only in Anjuna in 'sussegad' Goa. And to make matters worse, the spots chosen for the mind-blowing revelry lie cheek-by-jowl to residential areas. The sound wave generated by these 'acid' parties, at most times engulfs the neighbouring villages of Assagao-Badem, Siolim, Parra and Arpora. The two schools in Anjuna are constantly at the receiving end. The day after a night party is held, children come to school with droopy eyes and fall asleep in class, a teacher say. The steady increase in the drop-out rate is squarely blamed on the rave parties. (GT)
