Very good observations Nisser Dias, you made some excellent and very relevant points in this article. As for Yuri's priority to stop water supply to entire South Goa... his father and other miners are already on their way of doing that by ruining all the water tables by illegally mining below water tables in Goa. In any case, stopping water to entire South Goa supplied by Selaulim Dam might be a good thing - as the content of heavy metals in that water is probably already above the acceptable levels due to the 19 mines operating illegally close to the water reservoir....

What I would like to know is how to prevent Yuri from winning the elections. Anyone knows who else is contesting elections in Sanguem? Are we going to allow Yuri to run loose without any strong opposition against mining in Sanguem? How many more members of this Alemão family in power can Goa cope with? How can we tolerate the continuous rise and growth of governance incompetence in Goa? I despair!
