Goa's coastal and midland areas are literally under siege by flocking tourists
from the neighboring States. They bring not only themselves but also their
vehicles into this tiny Goa along with their arrogance and disorderly
behaviors. This seems to have become an annual feature when Goans cannot enjoy
New Year as there are huge traffic jams making it almost impossible to travel
after sunset. The profits of a handful of Goans cannot be allowed to
inconvenience the larger section who have nothing to benefit from this greed
and avarice except face the nuisance. The Santa Monica jetty in panjim is an
absolute nuisance to the public as lot of time is wasted in traffic congestion
and obstruction by Jay walkers.
It is high time that tourists are prevented from disrupting the life of Goans
who have to stay indoors on New Year. This is definitely not the quality of
life promised in then RP-2001 and present RP-2021. Goans need to celebrate the
New year by assembling in thousands at Panjim KTC circle and have a street
celebration all through the night. Do this and the blind Government's eyes will
open almost immediately.
Instead of fighting for Anna's/BJP's Jan Lok Pal, Goans should first learn to
demand their little rights that matter everyday.
1. Demand footpaths.
2. Demand pedestrian crossings in towns
3. Demand sub-ways at every bus stop along the National Highway.
4. Demand clean public toilets
5. Demand security
6. Demand ban on all loud noise after 11 p.m.
Let us then see if Anna and BJP are ready to support this public agenda on
priority.
