------------------------------------------------------- CONVENTION OF THE GOAN DIASPORA FROM GOA INTO THE WORLD Lisbon, Portugal June 15-17, 2007 Details at: http://www.casadegoa.org -------------------------------------------------------
Parrikar image BJP image or performance in the elections is likely to be affected due to various bad publicity and direct or indirect attacks on BJP in the name of communalism or secularism. We have seen may such ads in the print addition released by individuals, NGOs or other self declared forces. Besides, ads, once could see other articles including letter to the editors, editorials or editors election special messages on front pages On the net too, we saw many similar direct or indirect writings. However, the recent one CNN-IBN 'Eye on Goa' seems to have given a mixed message. I could hear a big round of public/audience applause when Parrikar said Goan will elect Goa which is Hindu, Christians, Muslims and other non-Goans. Some one has also said we had a best SFX exposition during Parrikar Govt. Also, when asked the audience if they believed BJP was bad for Goa or if it will destroy the communal harmony, it seems majority said no. Sorry,. I could only listen the audio part of the programe. Anyway, if BJP winning performance is not as expected, BJP and BJP alone responsible for this as it had plenty of time to come out in the open on it policies or ideologies on secularism. Whatever may be the outcome, I am for sure, the lessons will be learnt. Long live secular Goa.
