Stephen When there are too many screws on their top floors one cannot expect any rationale decisions. As patriotic as they sound, I bet you more than half of the Freedom Fighters and their children have Portuguese ID's.
The statement "Who are the parents to decide" is a clear reflection of how they were brought up by their parents. Dr Jose Colaco has given some food for thought in his email on the subject. Good for Savio for standing up and shame on us that we are not joining but busy catching crabs from the sea and growing tall poppy to remain as we are. It is our fault for not being together and if Goans are serious of our motherland, we should put up a strong resistance even if we have left with Koteo in our hands. It is great to see that you are keeping people accountable.

By questioning " WHO ARE THE PARENTS TO DECIDE" Let me say "Are they ( in the select committee) not the parents?" These all 8 gang masters in the group of steering committee are BRAHMINS? and I know for sure one of them in person that is Nagesh Karmali well, who stayed in my house as paying guest on those days in Portais, for many years as he was just a novice in Konkanni or politics. He climbed up and left my house perhaps for his own ulterior motives to bring Konkanni above Marathi which I appreciated. As a freedom fighter claimed by him, did a blunder for removing Portuguese name plates from Fontainhas roads, and all became against him from that time, except the Brahmins. He and Sinari were of the same opinion but now they are no where. Suddenly Bhatikar whom I used to adore him as good IAS officer is now with his trumpet against the FORCE and against the parents who are been fighting for English grants, and made a road block yesterday 31st July 2015 for all the MLA's and Minister not to reach Goa Assembly proceedings. Savio, is a great person and his health is badly affected and deteriorated for the cause of parents to get English grants for the Dioceses school children and people of Goa are behind the FORCE. Hats off to Savio, a leader of the masses, and hero of this group. Select Committee needs to be modified or closed down as it is done for name sake to support BJP Govt. Following are for information: Adhoc Steering Commeettee of the Konkani Lok Shakti comprises of: Damodar Ganekar ( Convenor) Fr. Mousinho Ataide Aravind Bhatikar Uday Bhembre Tanaji Halankar Nagesh Karmali Pundalik Naik and Shantaram Varde Wallaulikar Cherios to FORCE Stephen Dias D.Paula date: 1st Aug 2015---------------------------------------------
