Cecil,
In answer to your question......." Does Goa need a mani
pulite ? "......i can assure you that all the MLAs from the CM to the
most recently elected one would vote against it or do all in their
power to abort it.....as most of them have corrupt dealings whether
it is with illegal mining, suspicous land dealings with the Mumbai or
Delhi based land developers or dealings with the drug mafia- police
nexus ? Why do you think so many of them are so insistent that t the
party in power give a " ticket " to their children to continue this
golden goose milking of Goa ?
