It is great that they have identified these five people as corrupt and blacklisted them. But what is one to read into the fact that all five are Congresswallahs? Is this a clean chit on corruption to the BJP? Jagrut Goem claims to be against the BJP and its communal agenda. Then how come not a single brazenly communal politician from the BJP has been identified, and no meetings are being conducted in their constituency asking them to vote against these people because of their communalism? Or does Jagrut Goem feel that only corruption is an issue, and not communalism? And, if so, does it give a clean chit to the BJP on corruption? It is easy to say things in general. It is whom you specifically target and where you conduct your meetings that people judge you by. And Jagrut Goem is showing itself to be anti-Congress without being anti-BJP. One supporter of Jagrut Goem told me that they have to conduct meetings where they have a base, which is why this has happened. Are they seriously claiming that they have a base in Taleigao but not in Panjim? Then why are they not conducting a meeting in Panjim constituency asking people not to vote for Parrikar because he is brazenly communal? -- Question everything -- Karl Marx ------------------------------------------------------- Goanet recommends, and is proud to be associated with, 'Domnic's Goa' - A nostalgic romp through a bygone era.
