In rank breach of established Protocol, Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar at the Independence Day function asked Speaker Pramod Sawant to unfurl the national flag at the State function in Panaji.
It is now to be seen what happens next week on the Gandhi Jayanti State function at Old Goa where the Chief Minister is the main guest and garlands the statue of Mahatma Gandhi. This year the local MLA Pandurang Madkaikar may also not be around. In his address at last year’s Gandhi Jayanti function , Manohar Parrikar had stressed the need to tackle the garbage menace but sadly despite Old Goa being a heritage and historical site it continues to remain inundated with heaps of garbage all over on account of the utter failure of this government to handle the issue. https://youtu.be/_JFl0c24fjQ In his address last year Manohar Parrikar had also opined that we should work even on Gandhi Jayanti. Less said the better of the current Manohar Parrikar comatose government, with Ministers hospitalised and governance on a long holiday. A very long one indeed!
