There is still time to book and our fellow Goan Travel Agent should be able to assist. Rose at 1-818-834-0169. We currently have around 22 people and the more that sign up the crazier it will be.

[Goanet] Goa's CM flies the way you and I do
I believe the kudos can come when Goans are safe in their land - ie rid of corruption, crime and untold ghanti migration. Now there is no talk of Special Status for Goa? BC While returning to Delhi from Goa yesterday, I was pleasantly surprised to find the chief minister of Goa, BJP's Manohar Parrikar, on the same flight. No, this isn't the first time I was on board with a CM, a senior minister or a politician. But what I saw - right from the time he boarded the aircraft till the moment he exited the airport building at New Delhi - impressed me so much that it has stayed with me till now and has made me write this piece. I tried to remember when was the last time I saw a CM or a senior political leader of Mr Parrikar's stature queuing up like a common man to board a flight. No flunkeys, no security, no attendant, carrying his own luggage - and he was flying economy on a low-cost carrier, not first-class on a full services airline. He wasn't the last to enter the flight nor was the flight held up for him to arrive.

[Goanet] NEWS: 40 acquitted in Goa communal riots case for lack of evidence (PTI)
40 acquitted in Goa communal riots case for lack of evidence PTI | Apr 18, 2012, 11.47AM IST PANAJI: A local court on Wednesday acquitted 40 accused, including senior BJP leaders, in the first ever communal riots case in the state, which had occurred in the twin towns of Curchorem-Sanvordem in 2006. The sessions court at Margao acquitted 40 accused, including the BJP general secretary Satish Dhond and senior leader Sharmad Raiturcar. The accused had been charged with unlawful assembly, mischief and criminal trespass. Riots had erupted after a mob demolished a madrassa on March 2-3, 2006, which was allegedly constructed illegally on the outskirts of Sanvordem-Curchorem. The violence, which continued for three days before the Central Industrial Security Force stepped in, saw property worth crores of rupees gutted. Acquitting the accused, judge Vikaya Pol said that the prosecution had failed to prove case against the accused including the individual role played by them. The judge also observed that merely becoming a part of the assembly does not establish their crime. The prosecution could not prove, beyond reasonable doubt, the act or commission on the part of the accused, which would make him a member of the unlawful assembly, the judge ruled. The court also noted that the prosecution failed to prove that the accused were a part of the assembly, which was responsible for communal violence. During the riots, which continued for two days, shops and establishments belonging to the minority community had been targeted. Officially, this is the first ever communal violence witnessed by the state, which is known for peace. Police had feared that the violence would spread in other parts of the state as well. However, the communal harmony meetings between both the communities had controlled the situation. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/40-acquitted-in-Goa-communal-riots-case-for-lack-of-evidence/articleshow/12714408.cms

[Goanet] Goa Budget 2012-13 tailored to suit Saraswat, Bamon and mining interests
http://bharatmukti.blogspot.in/2012/04/goa-budget-2012-13-tailored-to-suit.html Chief Minister of Goa Manohar Parrikar has made some remarks about mining in his budget 2012-13 speech in Goa legislative Assembly in paragraphs 133, 134, 135 on pages 42, 43 and 44. He also remarked on barges in paragraph 151 on page 48, and paragraphs 233 on page 70. He also remarked on fees on handling of mineral dumps in paragraphs 235 and 236 on page 71. It is important to subject his remarks to the test of scrutiny at this juncture. Let’s start with paragraph 133. It starts ‘I am personally aware of the fact that the rural Goa is suffering on account of rampant mining activity. With this he admits that mining per se has caused damage and legal status of the mining operations are of no consequence. This is an important admission from the Chief Minister himself. However his future course of event is illogical. Instead of assessing how much damage mining has done to Goa for the past over 50 years he takes flight into something else all together. If he was serious about the calculation of damage that mining had caused to Goa it would have been in fitness of things that he goes about assessing this damage. This he has not opted to do. That is his politics, his choice. The choice not to asses the quantum of damage caused to Goa because of the open cast mining is choice of Goa’s saraswat bamon Chief minister. If careful assessment was resorted to then CM would have realized that damage has longer restricted to rural Goa. Since he does not plan to go into all this we expect reality as pointed out by famous revolutionary philosopher of French Revolution Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s famous statement to come true: ‘in the land of blind one eyed man is a king.’ His first statement admitted mining caused damage to rural Goa. We know mining industry has been controlled by Saraswat Brahmins. It is then matter logic to deduce that it is the Saraswats that damaged Goa through mining. Manohar Parrikar is a Saraswats bamon. His caste in collusion with others has damaged Goa specially mulnivasi people. How can one expect Parrikar to measure and calculate how much Saraswats has damaged Goa? If he does this then it would be suicidal for his Saraswats. He is only showing great bravado to hoodwink public opinion in his favor. Truth is never gets buried under public opinion or by majority. It is like a drop of oil that always stays above the sea of falsehood. The second statement he makes ‘I reiterate the commitment of my government to forthwith stop all forms of illegal mining’. If Chief Minister was serious of stopping of the illegal mining then he would have declared to launch website for the department of mines and geology and list out all the legal and illegal mines that are in operation in Goa. To what extend the mines are legal and to what extend mines are illegal. Data with regard to T.C number, owner, operator, dates of licenses, and quantum of exports of each of the mines would have been made public on website. Not doing this leads to serious doubts about the transparency of his action against illegal mining. Also what action has been taken on illegal mines would have been made public. Nothing of this sort has been resorted to. This is serious matter and there is every possibility that illegal mine can become legal due to pecuniary favor to the ruling political parties or their members. The damage to Goa that he admitted will continue. While his first two statements are meant for attaining public sympathy, his third statement is tongue with taste for and from the mining industry that is controlled by Saraswats. He says ‘It will be the endeavor of my Government to regulate the legal operations in such a manner that these operations are socially responsive and environmentally sustainable, without allowing them to aggravate the suffering of the people further.’ What social responsiveness of mining then Chief Minister is talking about? Socially mining is controlled and promoted by saraswats and Brahmins in Goa as well as at central government level. They are either directly involved in mining or are facilitating granting of mining permissions through government offices for Brahmins ruled India since 1947 when transfer of power took place from British to Brahmins. No nationwide revolutionary movement so far has succeeded in identifying oppression of brahmin rule except Bharat Mukti Morcha. As a result there is complete hijacking of the system towards racists ends via systematic sabotage of Indian constitution so ardently written by Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar. The damage that CM admits is a manifestation of social reality of saraswat aggression against bhahujan samaj. Aggression through mining has been social response from the Saraswats in Goa and Brahmins in India. Mining industry has been already socially responsive and aggression has been their response.

Re: [Goanet] UK Goan Oral Histories Project - Observations
Dear Selma, You have been teaching me a lot of things on Goanet. You think I am incapable of knowing what sort of project it is and its purpose. The only voyeuristic entertainment pleasure I may get is watching a striptease. My post was relevant as it was on Goanet. Besides, my post was addressed to Eddie but you had to butt in. Your besharam-ponn prompts you to do so and there's nothing we can do about it. Since you cared to write, you haven't dealt with the counter-points made by Melwyn. I will be writting to Eddie formally to get answers to what Melwyn has pointed out. As a PRO, Eddie provided his official views but with Melwyn further countering them with his facts it would be pertinent on Eddie's part to reply. If Eddie chooses to ignore, it would be seen that he has no answers and that Melwyn's points carry the day. The moment I knew that your were appointed Project Manager, I was confident that you would take dominate it from start to finish. I didn't believe your hogwash that you were just going to do administrative work. I think I said it here before that you should tell it to the tarvottis (maybe the modern tarvottis won't believe you). keep on doing what you do best. Well Eugene

Good morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Bustas, 1: All of us are imperfect. We make errors of recall, comprehension, or just reading. That is often how misrepresentations could originate. 2: Misrepresentations (esp negligent ones) are different from Goebellistic machinations of the Busta variety. 3: I would have thought that ONCE a possible error was pointed out, the error-makers (IF they were decent folks) would have sent in a correction or a retraction. 4: Anyone seen any retractions in the pipeline? jc Still . a sub-sub-Harijan/Kunbi + lower than the lowest. (a) jc APRIL 12, 2012: It (The 'Caste' nonsense) has done enough of havoc in East Africa (inter alia, pl read Ben Antao's The tailor's daughter). (b) Bosco APRIL 15, 2012: I believe Ben's novel infers on the theatrics of upper caste men in Goa (not East Africa) vis-a-vis lower caste women. (c) Roland APRIL 15, 2012: Well and truly said Bosco. (d) Roland APRIL 16, 2012: G2 was convincing us based on Ben Antao's fictitious book that Goans went there TO ESCAPE the caste system. Busted, G2! COMMENT: Dear Herr Goebel, I accept that, of late, some of us have been having a tough time debating with those who read and review before scripting a post. It is something that one is forced to get used to in grad school. Even so, while some of us follow that discipline after leaving 'school', others, regrettably, do not. The latter, often, tend to CONJURE UP stuff to suit their own pre-judged views of others. It matters little that they do NOT really know the 'other' even marginally well enough to comment; but comment they do. Hence, the need for triumphant Goebelization. For instance, WHERE did jc state/infer/impute/dream ...that Goans went (to Africa) there TO ESCAPE the caste system? I always believed (and still do) that Goans (like many other folks) migrated (or joined the merchant navy) for better economic prospects. They still do IMHO. Now here, particularly for Bosco's attention, is Ben's own excerpt (from his NOVEL). I believe that (as almost always) the facts speak for themselves. http://www.chapterandverse.ca/book-excerpts/108-the-tailors-daughter.html Eliza knew that Goan tailors prospered wherever they worked, although in the larger Goan community their social status was low for they were victims of caste discrimination. No matter where they settled, their caste followed them, and Eliza’s parents had always been treated as inferior beings in Nairobi, even though they were successful tailors. With the best of wishes, as always jc sub-sub-Harijan/Kunbi + lower than the lowest.

[Goanet] Historical reasons for humiliation of Scheduled Castes in Goa budget 2012-13
http://bharatmukti.blogspot.in/2012/04/historical-reasons-for-humiliation-of.html One very interesting feature of the budget of Manohar Parrikar for the year 2012-13 is absence of any kind of financial allocations to Scheduled Caste people. In fact mentions SC only in the context of land acquisition under paragraph 152 on page number 49 of his budget speech. This is a policy statement of the Manohar Parrikar government. It is noteworthy to note that he has allocated Rs.300/- crores for welfare and overall development of the Scheduled Tribes including Rs.170.50 crores under Tribal Development. No allocation has been made to Scheduled caste people even though one BJP’s MLA has been elected from the reserved constituency for Scheduled Castes and currently occupies the post of Speaker of the Goa Legislative Assembly. The situation is indeed poignant and deserves deep introspection as the complete humiliation via budget cannot be patched up by justifying it as an oversight. Scheduled caste people in India have been historical defenders of the country from the brahmanical Eurasian invasion for thousands of years. They were important category of people to involve in Gautam Buddha’s movement that ended brahmanical domination in India. Scheduled caste people have also been very important targets of brahmanical rulers after the brahmanical counter revolution led by Pushya Mitra Sung. Scheduled caste people were considered by Brahmins as their great foes. Scheduled caste people were stigmatized, humiliated and stripped off their civil liberties to facilitate brahmanical supremacy. They were pushed outside the borders of the village and were forced to live in ghettos. They were subjected to innumerable humiliations. Humiliations of Scheduled caste and other people were codified into law. This law is known as Manusmriti. India was ruled through Manusmiriti. In Maharastra rule of Brahmins was known as Peshwaee. They excelled in humiliating Scheduled caste people through the enforcement of Manusmriti. Scheduled caste people suffered under Peshwas for many centuries in Maharastra specially in and around Pune. Pune was the headquarters of the Peshwas. Scheduled caste people revolted with deadly effect. 500 Scheduled caste men butchered 20,000 Peshwas in less than 24 hours and rule of Peshwas was put to an end. This historic day was 1st January 1818. The place was Koregaon, Pune. Few days back one of newspapers carried photograph of Mapusa BJP MLA Adv. Francis D’Souza who is now a minister in Bamon Manohar Parrikar’s government being crowned with Peswaee head gear under the hands of one of the brahmanical swamis. This is call for serious note for Mulnivasis in Goa. The system is being put in place to usher in Peshwaee in the State of Goa. Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar used to visit Koregaon, Pune every year to derive inspiration for the liberation of mulnivasi people. Scheduled caste people were against backbone of the Schedule caste federation that Ambedkar formed. In 1942 75,000 Scheduled caste people attended the organisation’s convention that lasted for over 4 days. Dr. Ambedkar considered Brahmins as hereditary enemies of Scheduled caste people. He was vehement and powerful organizer and statesmen and was poisoned his second wife Savita Ranade, a Saraswat brahmin from Konkan region in collusion with Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. Pandit Nehru, a Kashmiri brahmin never allowed Saxena report investigating the cause of death of Dr. Ambedkar to be tabled in the Parliament. In fact till date this report has not been tabled in the Parliament. When Ambedkar brought back Buddism back to India it was to a large extend Scheduled caste people to embarced Buddism. Tenets of Budhism sharply contrasted with that of Brahmanism. And Ambedkar wanted to spread this to the entire country. In fact he made this public few month before his death in Kathmandu.Ambedkar was one of the first one to scholarly point out the foreign origin of the word ‘hindu’ in his speech titled ‘Annihilation of Caste’ in 1936 which was never delivered due to cancellation of The 1936 Annual Conference of the Jat-Pat-Todak Mandal of Lahore but published in a book form later. He said “The first and foremost thing that must be recognized is that Hindu society is a myth. The name Hindu is itself a foreign name. It was given by the Mohammedans to the natives for the purpose of distinguishing themselves. It does not occur in any Sanskrit work prior to the Mohammedan invasion. They did not feel the necessity of a common name because they had no conception of their having constituted a community. Hindu society as such does not exist. It is only a collection of castes. Each caste is conscious of its existence. Its survival is the be all and end all of its existence. Castes do not even form a federation. A caste has no feeling that it is affiliated to other castes except when there is a Hindu-Muslim riot”.

[Goanet] Suspensions
At regular intervals, the media announces the suspension of various personalities. In recent weeks, for example, Director of Mines Geology Arvind Lolienkar, DySP Shamba Sawant and Registrar of Tiswadi Asha Kamat have been suspended. One does not, however, hear of whether they get unsuspended or reinstated or dismissed or charged or whatever. Do they continue to draw a salary, obviously without doing a stroke of work, during their period of suspension? Does anyone have statistics of the suspensions and eventual consequences thereof for the past 5 years? Thanks, Bernardo

http://ibnlive.in.com/blogs/rajengarabadu/707/63384/goa-cm-flies-the-way-you-and-i-do.htmlLet me start with the very last line that Rajen Garabadu has chosen to endhis article on Goa's CM's virtues - Mr Parrikar, take a bow!Indeed it is most fitting except that the 'exclamation mark' should be readas a letter 'l' i.e. 'bowl'And let me go back to the year 2004 when Manohar Parrikar was the CM. Therewas a national security debate ongoing and on this account a meeting of theall Party leaders along with the top security brass of Goa ( the Army/Navyrepresenting) was scheduled to take place in the chambers of the CM at thePorvorim's spanking new secretariat. And, as the then President of the GoaSu-Raj Party I had attended this meet with Manohar Parrikar chairing themeet. When most of the bigwigs and influential leaders of Goa's politicalparties had finished which included Dr. Wilfred D'Souza, Pratapsing RaojiRane, Luisinho Faleiro etc., I had stood from the back rows and ha d spokenthus:Goa's security is indeed so lax that anyone, a lay person, can walk up tothe oil tanks in Vasco da Gama and blow the port city to smithereens and oursecurity would have been sleeping. Coming back to the security, let Goa'sChief Minister be protected with at least a semblance of security when it isknown that the CM is, at times oblivious to the fact that security isnecessary -- especially when he enjoys his occasional glass of fruit juiceat the Alankar Cinema, at Mapusa. If anything should happen to him, theState of Goa, whose CM he is , will be humiliated. And I had addressed theCM directly to take note of what I had said with him nodding his head.Now coming back to our most humble and lay CM, Mr. Manohar Parrikar, hecould have done whatever he wanted when he was not the CM of Goa. But nowthat he is, he has no option but to follow certain norms which are relatedto dignity of Office. It is alright that he chooses not to wear shoes. It isalright that he choos es not to wear the minister's gadhi or a kurta-pajama( which even Churchill Alemao has worn to the chagrin of everyone else at aDelhi function to prove that he was more Indian than the Indian, beingbeing a suit-boot-tie wearing Goan ).If Manohar Parrikar is trying to sell himself as a humble bumble bee, thenthis reeks of populism. He has been out of the chair for far too long. Butthis is not the way that he has to try to remain glued to it by being cheap.Let him respect the State of Goa and the world of Goans who are nothing buta proud people, proud of their bearing and dignity. Let not ManoharParrikar slight that in the eyes of the world, especially the Indian world,to liken Goa's Chief Minister to a non-entity and one who is absolutelyshaky with elite norms. That does not mean that he has to follow in thefoot-steps of the erstwhile Congress Maharajas who got up and went to sleepat the cost of the Goan taxpayers.Let moderation prevail but let not the dignity of the State of Goa be put totest.CheersflorianoA proud but simple GOAN.goasuraj9890470896www.goasu-raj.orgwww.gragoa.comPS: We would like to know what our esteemed CM of Goa had to say on NCTCat the Chief Minister's Conference at Delhi, apart from being photographedside by side with the Hitler of Gujarat, more specifically of GODHRA.
[Goanet] Disaster for mulnivasi children through mid-day meal in Goa
http://bharatmukti.blogspot.in/2012/04/disaster-for-mulnivasi-children-through.html Plan for destroying Goa’s future is not only going through destruction of its land through legal and illegal mining but it is also insidiously being put to target Goa’s mulnivasi children by depriving them food and even poisoning their bodies. The children who were part of the midday meal scheme came in for rude shock today with the reports in the press about how program of malnutrion is pursued by the brahmanical State. Undoubtedly all the children who are subjected to this problem are mulnivasi children. Bamons and Saraswats in Goa never allow their children to suffer in this way. They run the state by occupying all the top positions. They are the one who has created grave risk to Goa’s mulnivasi children. Digambar Kamat, a Bamon ex- Chief Minister had purposefully supervised this disaster. He gave all his time to implement ADHAR bio-metric cards so that when mulnivasi in Goa will rise against bamon raj they will be tracked through computer data. He also supervised Goa’s great mining plunder. Saraswat Digambar Kamat also supervised systematic destruction of the Goa’s agriculture as growth level slumped into negative. Goa’s mulnivasi children are made to suffer in hunger. Goa’s Bamon’s and Sarawats are celebrating Golden jubilee of Liberation. Perhaps they are celebrating because they are sure that within next 50 years there will be no mulnivasi left in Goa, there will be no assertion of bhahujan samaj in Goa. So Saraswats are celebrating. This chief minister too has joined the celebration party. Isn’t an irony that after 50 years of Goa’s liberation our mulnivasi children have to be pushed into this situation of systematic death? This happened not because of lack of funds or because of lack of food around. This happened because Bamon long term agenda is to destroy mulnivasi children by malnutrion and food poisoning. There are many instances of food poisoning of mulnivasi children through mid-day scheme in Goa. In last instance few months ago lizards was cooked in food and served to children resulting in food poisoning of several mulnivasi children inVasco. Bamon children never go and eat food from these midday food scheme. They are carefully kept healthy. Otherwise ask Dempos, Salgaonkars, Timblos, Tarcars, Kamats, Parrikars whether their children are enrolled for midday meal in Goa. This is a case of gross discrimination and criminal action on the part of brahmanical system in place. This midday scheme was introduced to destroy the education process by diverting attention of teachers from teaching into cooking in unofficial manner. Teachers are pushed into cooking rather than teaching. This is done so that mulnivasi children do not go about studying and getting good education. This is indeed pervert motive to start with. In addition central government conducts review of this scheme and found that Goa government had not done its proper implementation. This scheme by itself was bad and its implementation has been as per the needs of the brahmanical desires. Digambar Kamat had behaved this way purposefully. The result is a ruin of a one generation surely to the delight of the ruling Brahmins in the state who despise and hate bhahjan samaj infinitely and devise various ways to subdue us. Bamons in Goa has special taste for the ruining of generations of mulnivasi in Goa. They already ruined two generations through devnagri konkni. And bamon Adv.Uday Bhembre is proud about the same. Situation is so dangerous that there is no place even to do testing of food. Home Science College in Panjim which has facilities but no staff to carry on the tests. Total students affected are 91,000. Of these hundreds are found to be severely anemic. Anemia is result of malnutrition. Thousands suffering from stunted growth and are frail. Current Goa chief minister Parrikar who was leader of the opposition when this conspiracy was unfolding from 2006 onwards was aware of this conspiracy totally and yet did precious little to prevent it. He provides the evidence of his awareness of the gravity of the situation relating to midday scheme in his budget speech 2012-13. On pages 39-40 paragraph 123 he audaciously uses Marathi phrase comparing mulnivasi children under this midday scheme to dogs. He begins “Bhik Nako, Pann Kutre Avar. Such situation exists in implementation of Mid-Day-Meal Scheme. Today, such a sick feeling is created by the scheme that students prefer to remain hungry than to have a meal. My government shall completely revamp the scheme in order to improve the quality and nourishment value of the food”. The result of this sick feeling today is there for every one to see. For the reason of political expediency CM has promised revamp of the scheme and improvement in the quality and nourishment value of the food. What he does will be proved on ground in due
