Remember this famous slogan? When Indians euphorically declared that
Indians-Chinese were bhai bhai? Well we Goans can now euphorically celebrate
the fact that in Goa atleast, Congress-BJP are bhai bhai.
Ofcourse the Congress, watch Sardinha wax eloquent about communalism, has now
retracted the call to ban the SS of Goa. Why? Well apparently, an outfit whose
members plan to blow up innocent children, revelers and devotees still does not
qualify as an outfit that needs to be banned. In every organization there are
"good people and bad people" is what Sardinha tells us. This is the same logic
America used with the Klu Klux Klan in the 1949s. There were some who only
stitched those white robes and wizard hats. Then there were others who wore
them.
Congress babu and head honcho, Kamat was the same man who wanted to ban M F
Hussain's documentary from being shown at the Film Festival a few months back.
Why? Well because the HJS asked him too.
A little earlier in the year, the Speaker of the Assembly threatened the
freedom of the press and offered the services of the Aquada jail to one of our
Goanetters.
And then a few weeks back, Kamat wanted a picture of M F Hussain's being pulled
out of a display. Why? You guessed it. The HJS thought it offensive.
So, Goans. There you have it. BJP-Congress bhai bhai.
best,
