I have not been able to function or even eat my food the whole day. This is a
very sad day for us Goans and as a parent I mourn with every other parent
today. If there is a God above, deliver us all from this cloud of grief that
has surely made its way to you. Why could you not have spared those children?
It is right that carnival is cancelled. The state should be in mourning. It
would be immoral to frolick in the streets when our hearts are so heavy with
grief just as it is immoral for Digu to declare a compensation of 2 lakhs as if
that somehow makes up for everything, as if human life can be so easily
monetised. Incidentally, a similar response followed the fire in Vasco. Any
statesman worth his salt would have promised a thorough investigation into the
matter and an assurance that those responsible, if any, would be brought to
book.
In mourning,
selma
