Problems of foreigners J.A. Bostock (UK, Goa)
I read, nearly daily, problems of Foreigners, (when I say foreigners I mean non Indians,) who have purchased property in Goa that are being victimised as they are spoiling the Goans opportunities of purchasing property themselves, or they are buying property illegally etc etc. I feel that it is time that the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth came out. Behind every foreigner wanting to buy property in Goa, their is at least 3 to 4 Goans participating in the deal, being an Advocate, CA, the seller and a Agent. In UK if a CA or an Advocate, give information contradictory to the law, these people would be struck off and not allowed to practice. In addition they could be sued by the client to retrieve all cost back which were lost due to their incorrect information. If you applied that here, I am sure your problems would disappear over night. The government should not look for scape goats, it should look at the problem at hand, deal with each case individually and depending on the way the property was bought and by what means, they should take appropriate action with all concerned. Many non Indian visiting Goa, do so, because they love Goa, they enjoy joining in with the cultures and people of Goa, unfortunately their is always a few that spoil it for others. I ask the government to deal with unwanted miscreants as the law of the land dictates, however, support the people who have been miss led and taken for a ride with a just manner. Long live a peaceful Goa.
