Respected Editor,
This is w.r.t.letter by shri Rajendra Kakodker.
Somehow there is no limit to selfish ends of all MLAs without any
exception.It's like their business to fool the man on the street and accumulate
wealth for the next elections.In fact GOA is a state that can set an example of
"ideal" state of Bharat.But since independence in 1961 things have been
deteriorating as the elected MLAs are goans and their secretaries and the
bureaucratic set up makes them helpless.There are Goans,both in Christian &
Hindu communities who feel that they were better off during Portuguese rule. If
the goans were assisted by ,goan officials and secretaries,perhaps things would
have changed.It is better to be late than never.Centre could definitely give a
try.
With best wishes,
