[Goanet] MINING IN GOA: VOICE HEARD IN LONDON,U.K VEDANTA
CONGRATULATIONS! OBRIGAD! The action by activist/s at the Vedanta meeting in U.K will go down in Goan her/history as the international bugle call against the wanton destruction of Goa by the mining industry.We are certain that caring international tourists will question whether their money should go to the Goan Exchequer which does not protect the environment. Lets make things happen. Lets organise instead of agonising. Lets begin to hasten the end of unregulated mining. Lets loosen the stranglehold of the Mining lobby on the Govt. of Goa. LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC OF INDIA! Gerry
[Goanet] PHASING OUT MINING IN GOA
The Supreme Court has ordered immediate suspension of mining in Bellary district .Reason stated is over exploitation of iron ore causing large scale environmental degradation.Dempos was wise to get out from mining and sucessfully diversify into other areas.The RP 2021 has cut out completely the chapter on phasing out of mining which is more urgent here than in Bellary!I ask everybody in authority who cares for the aam admi and Goa in particular, GCCI and those wanting to green Goa and to create jobs,where is the semblance of proper planning to phase out disasterous policies instead of continuing and increasing mining activity under different guises and hidden agendas?
[Goanet] Fwd: Nataka in Karnataka by Yedurappa
Nataka in Karnataka by Yedurappa The BJP is the principled opposition party in Parliament They label themselves as the party with a difference. The drama unfolding in Karnataka is the proof of it. In the first place against the counter onslaught by the congress on scams involving the outgoing C.M. the party rallied behind the C.M supporting him against with false pride and ego and at all odds, so as to not t give an edge to the congress party Naturally the ex C.M. has taken advantage of this double speak. Now that he has been asked to quit by the central party, he is lingering at the door throwing a gauntlet to the party high command. The way 75/121 and 40 M.P`s of Lok Sabha,Rajha Sabha and M.L.C. Legislators have reelected him as the party leader, it is indicative of the revolt, rebellion and indiscipline in the legislators wing and defiance of party norms. Can the central leadership ignore this democratic demand of a sizable members? It is a HISTORY in the making, that the tainted ,resigning C.M. has discretely offered himself, once again for the coveted post, delaying election of the successor, thus embarrassing the party beyond redemption He should have forcefully, voluntarily declined and, refused to be the leader once again The legislators very well knew the cloud under which he was directed to resign and yet the majority are defiantly willing to incur the wrought of the party in blatant defiance It is a test for the central leadership of the party, as the disciplined party with a difference to deal firmly and enforce their authority, party writ decisively to redeem their pride and authority The C.M. and B.J.P.`s earlier argument was that he has not been proved guilty and it is mere perception of corruption. Now the LOK AYUKT has indited him and it is established norm, decency to vacate till he establishes his innocence beyond doubt. He has very deliberately chosen to throw caution and propriety to winds The challenge to the B.J.P leadership is being keenly watched as the FIRST test case. Till now Yedurappa has not openly dissociated from the happenings or declined the outcome in deference to the parties wishes, He appears determined to dig in his heels It can be inferred that he is involved in behind the scene manipulations. though his resignation move was to blunt the edge of congress propaganda, Congress is having the last laugh at this unfolding and at the machinations of BJP to extricate itself unscathed from this boiling cauldron of rebellion.

Re: [Goanet] Goa's trail of many liberations
Teotonio R. de Souza wrote: My ancestry links with that of Bernardo some 90 generations ago. For unknown reasons my ancestors settled in Moira and were integrated in its fifth vangoD of ganvkars, while their cousins, Bernardo's ancestors settled in Aldona as 4th of the 12 vangoD of the so-called Comunidade Fraternal, to distinguish it from the Communidade de Boa Esperan?a, made of five vangoD of kulachari of Chardo and Sudra castes. Gilbert Lawrence responds: I read Teo's above article with interest. The above caught my eye and raised more questions than provided answers. By time-line (of 90 generations) it would suggest that the above settlement occured prior to the arrival of the Portuguese. So: 1. What is the evidence for this migration and settlement? 2. Where did those settlers / ancestors come from and why did they move? 3. Why did they settle in Moira and Aldona? 4. Who were the residents (land-owners) of Moira and Aldona prior to these new settlers? 5. Which ruler facilitated the migration of the settlers and why? My reading of society in the pre-1500s was that it was sparse, (due to low land productivity from poor farming techinques) and with a short live expectancy for a whole variety of reasons. Regards, GL

[Goanet] Short, Simple and Direct
Short, Simple and Direct From College Girls to Corporate Executives; from School Students to even Housewives -- all braved the rain. Eventually, they were rewarded as India came back from two-goals down to hold UAE 2-2 in World Cup Qualifier at the Ambedkar Stadium. The character and attitude of the new-look Team India promises much. “The juniors are ready for the challenge,” maintains Armando Colaco, and that’s prompted him to remark, “This is the beginning of a new era in Indian football.” “When I took over and dropped some seniors, many had raised their eyebrows. But I knew what I was doing. You ought to give it to the boys.” The new style of stressing on possessional ball play cannot be implemented overnight; especially after the National Team has had a penchant for long aerial balls for the past few years. “It will take time,” Armando insists. “Initially, the boys found it hard to adapt. But they are enjoying the new style at the moment,” he goes on. “I’d request all to look at our International Friendlies against Maldives and Qatar. You’ll understand what I mean,” he added. The match against Maldives which was Armando’s first as the National Coach ended 1-1 and then India beat Qatar 2-1 in an away match at the Al Sadd Stadium in Doha. The cynics may frown from here on. In the World Cup Qualifiers, a nine-man India went down 0-3 and then at Home, India drew 2-2. If only one could remember, India’s defensive organisation for the last 66 minutes never allowed their rivals to outnumber them despite having a two-man advantage. “Indian football is on the right track,” Armando says. “In football 11 vs 11 is different; 9 vs 11 is different.” But as you speak to him, you just cannot stop him from praising the U-23 boys to the hilt. “They are the future of Indian football. I’m lucky to have such a good mixture of youth and experience in my squad.” A little more than a month may have passed by but India’s U-23 Pre-Olympic squad haven’t yet been able to overcome the debacle of drawing 1-1 against Qatar, a match they should have won handsomely. “Jeje is special; Dika (Lalrindika Ralte) is special; Raju (Gaikwad) is special. The entire bunch is special,” Armando keeps it short and simple, much like his coaching. Let’s not forget the Jeje-s, the Dika-s, the Raju-s are all products of All India Football Federation’s Youth Development Programme. Even as the U-19 squad presently trains in Shandong for the Weifang Cup and the U-16 squad leaves for the U-16 SAFF Championship, a whole new bunch of future stars are being groomed all over. The Supply line is getting ready. It’s Short, Simple and Direct.
[Goanet] AIFF THANKS DSA
AIFF RELEASE The All India Football Federation expresses its gratitude to the Delhi Soccer Association for their co-operation in the successful staging of India’s World Cup Qualifier against UAE at the Ambedkar Stadium on Thursday, July 28, 2011. Thanking Mr. Subhas Chopra, the President of the Delhi Soccer Association and the other members of the Association, Mr. Praful Patel, the President of the All India Football Federation said, “It wouldn’t have been possible to host the match without the support of Mr. Chopra and all the honourable members.” “On behalf of the AIFF, I thank the DSA and expect their co-operation for the betterment of football in years to come,” Mr. Patel added. Mr. Kushal Das, General Secretary, All India Football Federation, appreciated the whole-hearted support of Mr. NK Bhatia, the Vice President of the DSA, Syed Shaheen, the Honorary Secretary and the Association in general. “Mr. Bhatia’s experience guided us in the right path. He was a pillar of strength all throughout,” Mr. Das said. Mr. Das also thanked the Police and the Fire Brigade for their endeavour in making the event a success. The crowd who braved the rain to watch Team India in action also came in for praise from Mr. Das. “The crowd ignored the rain and cheered for Team India. I expect them to turn up in larger numbers the next time the boys play,” he said.

My comment :-- I don`t think it behoves a Mea Culpa from Mr. Martins about his personal opinion of the transfer of Goa to India from the Portuguese overseas province state. Goa was forcibly taken by disproportionately large armed forces of India from a small garrison of Portuguese and Goan defenders. That is a fact recounted by goans in the Operation Vijay accounts. It was also formally documented in the Indian parliament in Delhi as an annexation.

[Goanet] Monserrate backs out of contest for Panaji seat
Monserrate backs out of contest for Panaji seat TNN | Jul 31, 2011, 12.58AM IST PANAJI: Leader of Opposition Manohar Parrikar can breathe easy now when he contests for the record fifth term from Panaji in the next assembly elections. Education minister Atanasio (Babush) Monserrate will not cross swords with him in the next assembly election. Eight months ago, Monserrate's announcement that he would take on Parrikar and leave Taleigao segment to his wife and village panchayat sarpanch, Jennifer Monserate had triggered tremors in the BJP camp. But now, he has decided to look for greener pastures for a spot to return to the Goa assembly. Confirming this, Monserrate told TOI Yes, I have decided to move out of Panaji constituency. Monserrate said the main reason for him to change his mind was that he was unable to bring development in the capital city. It was development that he had promised to Panjimites after his panel won the Corporation of City of Panaji (CCP) polls. I had asked (the Congress party) for urban development portfolio so that I could do something for Panaji, he disclosed adding that with education (portfolio) I can't do much in the constituency. Monserrate, who represents Taleigao in the assembly, said that if he had to have the urban development portfolio instead of education, he would have initiated several projects and got his proposals implemented for the betterment of the capital city, its residents and its visitors. He said he had many plans for the capital city but nothing could materialize. Monserrate is now eyeing Santa Cruz where he had fielded his wife in the 2007 election. Let me see, I haven't decided yet, was what Monserrate said to a question on his plans for the next assembly elections, though he indicated that Taleigao might not necessarily be his preference. After Monserrate's 'capital' announcement, the CCP election had turned out to be a mega battle between the two politicians. In a close encounter, Monserrate who had declared the election as a semi-final, pulled a victory for his panel - though by a small margin, four months ago. For Monserrate it was a big victory as his opposition was not restricted to Parrikar and his supporters. There were many others who wanted to see Monserrate's panel defeated including professionals, builders and some Congress leaders too. He said he was confident that if he had to get urban development portfolio, he would have surely defeated Parrikar. Parrikar is representing Panaji since 1994. I had got a very good feedback during CCP elections and despite heavy odds against me, my panel had won with people's support. The writing on the wall was clear, Monserrate said, adding that he would have defeated Parrikar based on the development plank. But I could do nothing much without the urban development ministry, he added. Parrikar said it would make no difference to him whether Monserrate contests or doesn't contest in Panaji in the next assembly elections. I want to reiterate that as I had said earlier, I will contest. It's final. There is no change from my side and it doesn't matter much to me who will contest against me, he said. Speaking to STOI, Parrikar further said I want to make it very clear that I am not linked to Monserrate not contesting. Frankly speaking, I have not spoken to Monserrate, neither in person nor telephonically, for more than seven months now, except during the last assembly session. He also stated that he takes all elections very seriously and added that no one can take the electorate for granted and I've never done it. Sources, however, said that there may have been some other factors for Monserrate changing his mind to give up the Panaji challenge. For some time now, a strong lobby had been working behind the scene to convince Monserrate to pull out from Panaji. Denials notwithstanding, the fear was that if Monserrate was in the fray, Parrikar would not have had sufficient time to campaign in other constituencies. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/Monserrate-backs-out-of-contest-for-Panaji-seat/articleshow/9425922.cms

Re: [Goanet] PHASING OUT MINING IN GOA: (John Eric Gomes)
Yes indeed the Regional plan 2011 is COCK-EYED! Only a paradigm shift in hackneyed priorities of yore can deliver some soothing emollient for the citizens of India ,resident in Goa , and others at large. In the light of the Supreme Court suspending Mining in Bellary, we can be almost certain that the much touted Mining Corridor in Goa would meet a quiet burial at THE BEHEST OF THE MINING LOBBY ITSELF. We should not be surprised at the Mining lobby itself seeking to revisit the Regional Plan 2011. The bang out of their bucks will be missing for some time to come!!! Gerry
