<We need business advisers, a Renaissance engineer who can interact on
business, technology, the company, art, music, etc., and be an all-round
personality....We intend to bridge this gap through setting up engineering
colleges. We are planning to set up five or six engineering colleges,
although we will set up three to begin with. These will be in Pune, **Goa**
and Chandigarh. The Mahindras own the land in Pune and Goa and we will lease
land in Chandigarh, where the Punjab government is very keen.>

Now contrast this vision for Goa with that put out in Goa Plus (August 15,
2007) by Kavish Kamat in his article "Developmenet [of Goa] through the
years". He seems obsessed with protecting the "Goan identity" and
"traditional Goan values". He believes it is eroding due to the influx of
migrants sucked in by "completely unplanned" industrial development. He
wants Goa's development to be "planned to suit the needs of the locals".
Obviously this is a recipe for sealing Goa off socially and economically
from the rest of the land. It doesnt make sense.
