dear all -
when Pandurang Madkaikar was the Transport minister, he was hell bent on
making speed governors compulsory (of course, to satisfy a certain panaji based
good friend of his who had got the agency for distribution of thse speed
governors). The issue reached such heights that the CM himslef had to intervene
and there were fears of ESMA being invoked so as to break the proposed strike
of bus and track owners.
Now that, Pandurangbab is gone , and Sudin Dhavalikar is the new Transport
minister, he has said that the speed governors are not compulsory and the
matter has died down. What ever happened to the big issue of safety and
transport rules?? in case Pandurangbab is nor happy with the newly formed
tribal dept and comes back as transport minister , will the issue be reopened?
This just goes to say that in the current government, every single person is
the governemnt and everything functions as per individual whims & fancies .
much regards
