Chief Minister Digambar Kamat, who is anyway out of Goa most of the time, should realize that he cannot fool anyone when he boasts that he has continued to live in his dingy flat at Margao even after becoming Chief Minister. Digambar Kamat should instead enlighten the people of Goa on the astronomical growth of his assets and that of his family and business associates after he became Minister and more so over the last three years as Chief Minister. This could be the real reason why this government has kept the proposal for a Lokayukta to check corruption in cold storage.
There is no disputing the fact that Digambar Kamat is India’s only Chief Minister who can be contacted on his mobile. But sweet words over the phone without any concrete action is no succour to the common man who is bearing the brunt of the current rampant corruption and a non-performing government. So living in a flat and being accessible on his mobile, is a gimmick by Chief Minister Digambar Kamat to pretend that he is for the Aam Aadmi when he really is not. Slowly but surely the long arm of the law catches up with all misdeeds. It has now roped in the once invincible former Tourism Minister Mickky Pacheco. The turn of the other Ministers including Chief Minister Digambar Kamat may be just a matter of time. Aires Rodrigues T1 - B30, Ribandar Retreat Ribandar - Goa - 403006 Mobile: 9822684372
