Dear Sandeep,
Your extract from Nirmala `s column........." State Gov. suffers from
a strange malaise".........while obliquely imputing to Aires Rodrigues
the fault of over-doing his criticism of events in Goa..............
including the use of Mr. Kantak as a legal aide to the State ,
brings out in the open the strange goings-on in Goa, even from
the time of the previous state gov. under the chief -ministership of
Bab, Manohar Parrikar.
As a goan resident abroad , who follows events in Goa via the
media and from reports of goans who go for extended periods back
to their ancestral villages one sees a lot of " smoke " from
obviously "underlying garbage burning " !!
Why does the present CM who admits responsibility for the
mining dept. portfolio for the last 10/ 11 years........seem to
ignore the illegalities to let small operators mine illegaly and
some of the larger mining families get away with enviromental
degradation of smaller village agriculture/ water table concerns
concerns. To me this seems to point to some similarities with
the CM of Karnataka, Mr. Yedurappa who has been indicted recently
for massive wrong-doings .

Nirmala Fernandes writes on DGP Arya in her column 'State Government
suffers from a strange malaise' which has appeared in today's Gomantak
Times( Dec 29 Edition).
Extract from the column as below:
He(Aires Rodrigues) made a big hoohaa about DGP Arya's visit to
Gokarna. Without permission as he calls it. When DGP Arya says he took
the vehicle with oral permission I believe him and I have every reason
to do so. I was a young girl of 24 years when DGP Arya first came to
Goa as the ASP. My father worked for the Goa Police and I remember Dad
narrating to us the things that Arya was doing. I quote my father "ASP
Arya is an upright and sincere cop; he will go a long way". Sure, he
has come and gone a long way even before his tenure was over because
he made the Govt very very uncomfortable. And Goa's self appointed
lawyer helped to make a mountain out of a molehill.
In the write up he gave in a local newspaper some days back justifying
DGP Arya's transfer, he makes a case why Arya had to go. Not a word
about the good work he had started and would have finished had he been
here for his full term.
The Govt needs to understand this. The people of Goa are watching you,
and every action you take is being noted; for Goa and against Goa and
this transfer was definitely against the interests of Goa and Goans.
