With so many politicians seen doling out bags containing goodies this Ganesh Chaturthi, it may be a sign that Goa is gearing up for early assembly polls which otherwise are scheduled for May 2012. In the run up to the elections the people will make the best of the bonaza. The voters of Nuvem, Benaulim, Navelim, Porvorim and Mayem amongst other constituencies may see some very good times.
Goa will now see lots of buses departing on political sponsored pilgrimages to Shirdi, Tirupati and Vailankanni. There will be a spurt in sports tournaments sponsored by prospective candidates. Candidates will also be moving around wooing the voters with a list of household appliances. This year we will witness a lot of Narkasurs and Christmas tree festivities. All festivals till the assembly elections will be celebrated with added pomp and gaiety. As usual at all times there will also be no dearth of xacuti and biryani. The PWD taps may run dry but liquor will flow. But please watch out for the spurious stuff. The politicians care a damn if the Aam Aadmi dies as long as they win to live on or live to win?
