Narendra Modi fooled the people of India promising ‘Acche din’ while craftily keeping the hidden agenda under wraps till he usurped power. Nowhere in sight those promised 15 lakhs in 100 days for every household as share of that black money stacked overseas. Instead the BJP is now unleashing its vicious communal agenda which will only further tatter our great nation.
Initiating it with ‘ghar wapsi’ and followed by attacks on Mother Teresa, the beef ban is just a continuation of the series of sordid events unfolding. The worse is yet to come. A 10 year imprisonment for possessing beef but a maximum sentence of two years for death of a human being caused by a rash and negligent act, only shows where our country is headed. It has started with Beef and undoubtedly lamb, chicken and pork will follow all well engraved in the RSS driven BJP’s poisonous menu. The BJP’s beef ban in Maharashtra will soon spill into Goa with Manohar Parrikar having already laid the ground work by fuelling and fielding that NGO last year. But till then, with the Tourism industry currently in doldrums, the Government can for now promote Goa as a Beef destination. Ironically the BJP’s right wing fringe groups, who are targeting the beef trade, seem to be now tacitly in consonance with the rampant casino gambling, prostitution and narcotics trade that Goa is submerged in. The First President of United States George Washington had rightly said “However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.” Aires Rodrigues Advocate High Court C/G-2, Shopping Complex Ribandar Retreat, Ribandar – Goa – 403006 Mobile No: 9822684372 Office Tel No: (0832) 2444012 Email: [email protected] Or [email protected] You can also reach me on Facebook.com/ AiresRodrigues Twitter@rodrigues_aires
