To effectively deal with the global economic crisis our country is in dire need of some political stability and good effective governance. In a democracy the people get a government they deserve and the choices before the Goan electorate on 23rd April are very clear cut.
About the overnight opportunistic switching of parties by Jitendra Deshprabhu the less said the better. The Congress gave the NCP the North Goa seat and a candidate too. What a package! My vote is no secret. It would deservedly go to Mr. Sripad Naik who hails from my village. A very sincere, humble and accessible person who has reached out to the people at all times. If I had to reside in the South my lawyer colleague, the talented down to earth Mr. Narendra Savoikar would have been my unanimous choice. Francisco Sardinha’s involvement in the Marks scandal when he was Education Minister in 1980 and his wrong priorities over the years deserves that he be given the much needed political rest. He should in fact have been grateful to the BJP for having been able to sit and rock the Chief Minister’s chair which he lost while on a trip to Australia to visit the Kangaroos in Oct 2000. After decades in politics so much is his political immaturity that he even showed disrespect to Sonia Gandhi when he became Chief Minister only to later fall at her feet seeking re-entry into Congress party, a party known for its divisive communal and caste politics. The pair of scissors ( kator ) should not be used to split the anti-Congress votes but to snip the evil Congress hand itself. Aires Rodrigues Ribandar Mobile: 9822684372
