With a heavy heart I was told The Goan Observer last edition is indeed the last edition. Is this true?
The kiosk where the paper is sold in Margao wears a mournful look and almost brings a tear to my eyes. Unlike in the movies in real life good people often have a small chance or none at all of success. It is the way it is - God or no God! We have to accept life as is! Mr Rajan Narayan who is ailing but still writes when he has to right a wrong is Goa’s lion in journalism and has been for decades. If there is someone in Goa who deserves a lifetime award and pension it is this man who has been an objective critic and watchman of Goa’s governments, and a stooge of no none. He has brought to light the wrongdoing of the MGP Congress and BJP governments which has prevented the further erosion of corruption and quality of life in Goa. I ask the government to award him a small recognition for his service to the state and the people of Goa. Unlike Goan politicians he has given his life in the service of the people of Goa and not sucked the life out of their bodies unlike our esteemed politicians. Long live Rajan Narayan the lion of Goa!
