Considering Goa is in the toilet politically, the election manifestos are at
best useful as toilet paper. The election manifesto which Goans should look for
is a -
Corruption free state
Communal free state
Casteist free state
Mininal government intervention in Goan lives,
(especially promising goodies from the public exchequer)
Law and order
Separation of religion from government
Phased out mining
Responsible, sustainable development tourism
No land conversions for ANY "development"
No mega-projects
No MOPA
A Civilian controlled Dabolim
Controlled migrant population
(Goa cannot afford uncontrolled migration which is primarily
to conduct illegal activities in Goa (mining, mega-projects).
The list above is not comprehensive but could start to lift the state from the
political sewer it finds itself in.
