Carmona Panch Orlando answers to Churchils Bab lies. While appreciating that the PWD Minister at last realized that the state of Goa requires a Policy on Mega Hosuing projects in the state and that at present Goans cannot afford housing in their own land, Mr Da Silva informed that Churchil press briefing on the Carmona project is full of blatant lies. He say that Mr. Churchil should first lay his hands on the official records of the Carmona Panchyat Minutes books, and ascertain for himself the factual reports rather than relying on the parrot sarpanch installed by him in the Carmona panchayat. To put facts rights Mr. Da silva pointed out that the Rahejas has purchased the property in the year 2007 and that there was no shadow of Rahejas in Carmona in the Year2005. At that time it was the original owners of the property M/s Aurora & family from Margao who has applied for development permission for subdividing their property into 71 plots of average area of 350 to 400 square meters. Considering there was shortage of developed plots in the village to meet local demands, I as a responsible ward member consented to the sarpanch Mr. Sony Noronha that permission could be given to the owners since the owners orally promised the Sarpanch and me to give first preference to the locals for purchase of these plots. Mr. Sony openly declared at the gramsabha dated 30.03.2008 that It was not his body which granted the permission to the Rahejas but license was issued to the owners after taking consent of ward member. Regarding the ministers submission that he is the right hand men of his bet noir shri Luizinho Faleiro, Mr Da Silva submitted that Mr. Alemao himself was also a close lieutenant of faleiro who now has forgotten that it was Faleiro who has introduced him to Goan politics and prominence and that this a fact that Mr Alemao made Faleiro the Kupar. Mr. da Silva said that he wants to tell Mr. Alemao that he never personally was a supporter of Faleiro but he was and heis a supporter of the Indian National Congress party which Mr Alemao time again accused and abused of working against the interest of the Goans. Mr. Alemao recent turncoat of the Save Goa party is glaring proof of what Mr. Alemao preaches and practices. Whenever Mr. Alemao was fielded as a candidate of the Party he as an obedient soldier worked for the party candidate. Mr. Alemao only succeeded in buying the balance Panch members and not him and the people of Carmona opposing this lopsided development. Mr. Da Silva also pointed out that People of Carmona are supporting the Raheja project is a dream Mr. Alemao is dreaming and the unanimous resolution dated 30.03.2008 is a documentary proof in the records of Carmona Panchayat and that a writ petition is already filed to challenge the provisional NOC issued at the behest of Mr. Alemao. It was the Sarpanch who proposed this unanimous resolution sensing the mood of the gramsabha. The news report dated 22.03.2010 published by a section of the press that Carmona gramsabha dated 21.03.2010 approved the Raheja project is a false and a mischievous briefing by the Sarpanch and this fact can be checked from the observers report obtained by him under the RTI act and the Gram sabha resolution of date 21.03.2010 recorded by the secretary. Mr. Alemao submission that people of Carmona has even confronted Da silva for opposing the Rahejas project is also a blatant lie and if at all there was a confusion created it was a law and order problem that was created by relatives of the minister. At Gramsabha dated 30.03.2008 villagers who gathered were assaulted and that these persons are facing criminal charges in the court of law. If Mr. Alemao can prove me wrong on any one of his above submission he will resign from his Panchyat membership and so also social activities, otherwise he expect Mr. Alemao to do the same and even suggest retirement. Mega Housing projects does not mean development of local people, Locals are robbed of their purchasing power and only the Minister benefit by such projects. Orlando S. A. Da Silva Member V. P.
