Re: [Goanet] Going soft on Narvenkar
Read this : http://www.navhindtimes.com/articles.php?Story_ID=061411 It was also informed that the legislature wing of the BJP will decide its independent course of action against Mr Narvekar, during the Monsoon Session of the state Assembly, if he continues to hold the office. The onus of sacking the governor is on the President. Sacking a minister is in the hands of the Chief Minister. -Cajetan Rego --- On Wed, 6/18/08, cedrico dacosta [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: cedrico dacosta [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Goanet] Going soft on Narvenkar To: goanet@lists.goanet.org Date: Wednesday, June 18, 2008, 11:41 AM Going soft on Narvenkar Even after being framed in a scandal involving corruption of a high degree...Narvenkar still continues to hold the finance portfolio in the current ministry. That any of the current 40 legislators from any of the parties in Goa have any ethics and are purely driven by greed of the kodel is a well dramatised fact. I feel that in a democracy, it is not only the party in power, but also the opposition is to be blamed if such corrupt people are continuing in power. We take great pride in trying to blame the chief minister and the ruling congress...but open your eyes wide...see if the leader of opposition is doing his role well... See the logic...the opposition goes up to the president to seek the removal of a governor...but goes soft on a framed minister of the ruling party... At the height of the alleged molestation case that featured the same minister...it was the guts of the then leader of opposition ramakanth khalap, ably supported by the students lobby that led a defiant narvenkar to finally budge in and resign... Today, nobody seems to go for Narvenkar? And all this assemblies and mobs claiming to save Goa? First step to save Goa is to get rid of tainted ministers...but then if that happens..there are hardly any among the current 40 that are not tainted? Cedric D Dubai
Re: [Goanet] Manohar parrikar - right choice for CM
Please follow the link http://thegoan.blogspot.com. I feel Parrikar needs to be given a chance to form govt with full majority. I had a chat with Parrikar over the phone when he was trying to form the govt taking support from Babush. He said he was constrained by the current state of poiltics and had no choice but to form govt if Goa were to be saved from land sharks, corruption and bankrupcy. He said it would be ideal for Goa if every politician was non-corrupt and dedicated for Goan's well being, but the reality was far from this and hence he had to live with such constraints. He would himself follow his ethics even if he were to side with Babush. He explained this to me for about 20 min without having met/known me. After I had this talk, I fully understood his determination and the reason behind him making a U-turn. It is true that he had a centralized administrative style. But that is what is required while dealing with govt servant babus. A near impossible feat like IFFI 2004 could never have been achieved had he delegated work and expected it to get done somehow. IFFI is an investment. The cost that everyone complains about will be recovered in the years to come by way of tourism and fame.

[Goanet] Chat with Parrikar : Full transcript

So Parrikar cannot be behind the defections. Why is Parrikar siding with babush? He knows babush is a rouge. But he believes that babush has realized that people of Goa will not take things lying down. The man himself has not changed, but has now come under control. Why stake claim to form govt? The assembly would get dissolved otherwise. Goans don't understand what is good and bad. They only know booze, money and fun. The wrong choice would be made again and we would be back at square one where everyone in the govt is corrupt. This is worse than the leader being a non-corrupt and progressive and capable of controlling his colleagues to some extent. Choose the right car based on your needs. Check out Yahoo!

Re: [Goanet] Manohar Parrikar for CM
Did he not do good after becoming the CM? Did he not speed up the construction of bridges, and roads? did he not clean up Baina? did he not improve Goa's computer literacy? Who else in the current cabinet, if not him would improve the efficiency of the govt.? one who throws out a corrupt minister from his cabinet deserves to be congratulated and not dismissed. think about it. the verdict we give in the coming elections will determine how our children will live in this state.

I also know him to be a dedicated problem solver, and a non-communalist - despite all kinds of slurs and labels being hurled at him by the Do-Nothing, Good-for-Nothing Goan Gaon Goon politicians in Goa !

Opportunists work for their selfish benefit. BNP is a racists party, Goa is 80% Hindus. (But still lost, coz majority of Goans are not racists regards religion).
