NAXALITES AND ANTI-MINING ACTIVITIES Give a dog a bad name and hang him,
Is a saying that is so apt, however grim, When one talks of Naxalites exploiting anti-mining activities In Goa, alleging that people's natural proclivities Is something of which one should take a view that is dim. The truth is that the people have now awoken to the reality, And now abandoned their former complacent mentality. They have realised it is not enough to be whining, If they really want to get rid of the evils of mining, And need to raise their united voices with thundering vitality. - Shanti Dhoot RE: Goa news for June 22, 2008 Anti-mining drive refutes Naxalism in Goa - NDTV.com PTI As Goa state police confirmed keeping a close watch on possibility of Naxal-like activities in the tourist hotspot state's mining belt, anti-mining activists have ridiculed the claim. http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=T&ct=us/0-0&fd=R&url=http://www.ndtv.com/convergence/ndtv/story.aspx?id=NEWEN20080053824&ch=6/21/2008%208:36:00%20AM&cid=0&ei=-o5dSN2pD4SiggP_9_2pAw&usg=AFQjCNFnvztsiz5wQv2n49ddyXmsB60H0g
