For over a year now there have been clues of how the Digu gang has 
systematically embarked upon a path to eliminate any politician that is 
inconvenient to their undisputed plunder. Four to five politicians, Micky, 
Daya, Ravi, Babush and Churchill, have been singled out for deputation to the 
firing line and what is only required is an opportune moment to strike. One 
wrong  move and they had it. 
Could anyone imagine Daya being dropped like a hot potato. With Micky trapped 
in the rat trap, it now seems the turn of Ravi Naik to be administered a dose 
of psychotropic drugs. Just see the news about cops investigating journos on 
Roy's conncection in the drug scam. BJP has also started making the right 
noises against Ravi. I will not be surprised if in a couple of days Aires also 
joins in with his heroics. Ravi remains a thorn for the privileged class of 
politicians from Ponda. 
Needless to speak of the Goan janata, it is kept in an intoxicated state for 
365 days of the year. It has remained so for the last 49 years. Keeping aside 
the character and political dadagiri of the politicians lined up for 
elimination and looking at the larger picture, with all the heroics and noises 
of some forces it is not actually cleansing of politics that is taking place 
but a consolidation of power by a privileged class by eliminating the nuisance 
of the lower class political leaders.
