The sudden stumbling blocks that have started to be placed by the Government in 
the Medium of Instruction issue was a foregone conclusion. The genesis of the 
opposition to the MoI and the communalisation of the issue is within the 
Congress. It is surprising that the Monitoring Committee on MoI has now at the 
twelfth hour stumbled upon some legal deficiencies in the circular that needs 
to be sent back to the Law Department. After the deadline for parents to give 
their preference on the medium of instruction has lapsed a fresh set of forms 
gets sent out in Marathi and Konkani. The cunning Digu bab is the greatest 
threat to the cultural fabric and peace within Goa and has mastered the art of 
pretending to be pro-people and aloof from BJP. It now appears that the 
circular was issued merely to avoid the PIL in the HC. It is high time that 
Goans show the door to the CONG-BJP-NCP from Goa's politics in the coming 
elections.
