Camilo Fernandes - In response to JoeGoaUK's and Rajan Parrikar's below posts : Thanks a million JoeGoaUk for the wonderful coverage of GRA meeting alongwith the detailed video clip. After watching the video, I am sure many Goans like me who are based abroad, felt as though we too were present. As you mentioned the gathering was not huge maybe just 0.5% of Goa's population, still let us hope this is a beginning and an awakening and what started as a wave may soon turn into a storm. Hopefully the word has spread and we could look forward to a larger meeting in Margao. Thanks once again for sparing your valuable time and selflessly sharing the happenings in Goa. Rajan's post too makes very interesting reading. I too wish GRA all success and all the best in their very difficult task and hope our trust and faith is not lost. Let us all be united & optimistic and encourage and support anyone who comes forward sincerely to save our beloved Goa from further destruction.

The magnitude of the crowd was disappointing. I was hoping for an overflowing Azad Maidan. Hopefully, more Goans will show up for the next rally. I was surprised to see Dr. Audhoot Prabhudesai. If he is the same guy who was the medical officer at Zuari Agro eons ago, then I know him well - hadn't seen him in almost 25 years until this video. If people like him can be persuaded to come out, there is a sliver of hope for Goa. Fr. Bismarque - what can I say, he is my man! Yatish Naik - spoke very well. What is the GRA roadmap going forward? I didn't hear anything about any action plan. Perhaps Rajendra will fill us in? One piece of gratuitous advice: please give the "chaalis chor" schtick a rest. It is tired and it is stale. Besides, every time Digu hears it, he must be laughing his ass off. All the very best to GRA. Note: Although skeptical, thus far I have kept an open mind. Until and unless there is evidence to revaluate this position, it shall remain so. Regards, r
