[Goanet] A POTHOLED GOA WELCOMES LORD GANESHA

[Aires Rodrigues]

On 2nd August the Transport Minister Sudin Dhavalikar had given a very
solemn assurance to the Goa Legislative Assembly that all the roads of Goa
would be ‘pothole- free’ by Ganesh Chathurti.  The festival is here so are
all the potholes still around. Assurances by the government are all ending
up like China made goods, without a warranty nor a guarantee.

Election commission needs to look into this angle as people have some
misapprehensions functioning of the EVMs for the by-elections of Panaji and
Valpoi constituencies and counter check manually the paper trails of VVPAT
to clear the doubts of voters. stephen dias

[Goanet] Mulgao bridge in danger of collapsing

[samir umarye]

Samir Umarye

A 25-year-old bridge at Manaswada Mulgao is in a dilapidated condition with
the residents fearing that it could collapse at any moment.
As per a report the small, one-pillar bridge was constructed 25 years ago.
The residents had demanded the bridge as the distance from Mulgao to
Assonora would be reduced with the help of this bridge. After the demand
the then Bicholim MLA and transport minister, Pandurang Raut had
constructed the bridge which helped the residents.
Today, after so many years the condition of the bridge is very bad. Even
though the bridge appears to be in good condition from outside, the cement
of the bridge has already collapsed and the iron rods are protruding out
from the entire lower part of the bridge.
“There is constant traffic on this road and something should be done to
repair the bridge. This is the only shortest link between Mulgao and
Assonora and if it collapses then it will be a big problem for the people
of Mulgao,” said Premnath Mandrekar from Mulgao.
According to sources if one takes this bridge the distance from Mulgao to
Assonora is just 2 kms while traveling via Walshi it increases to more than
5 kms. “This bridge needs immediate repairs. The government should either
demolish this bridge or construct a new one in its place,” said Amrut
Mandrekar from the same village.
“There are even school buses which use this small bridge. But if it
collapses there could be a great damage to life and property,” Amrut said
adding “in case of any accident on the main road of Bicholim to Assonora
the entire traffic is diverted through Mulgao and this small bridge has to
bear the weight of all this traffic.”
Local panch Gajanan Mandrekar had also similar views about the issue and
feels that the bridge needs to be restored or rebuilt. “There is an urgent
need to repair the bridge as the bridge is totally damaged from its bottom.
If nothing is done there are chances that it could collapse at any time,”
Gajanan said. “We have also approached our local MLA and informed him about
this issue,” he added.

I wonder if you would have lyrics in Konkani for the traditional Goan Toast
(Saudo Song sung for weddings etc.).

UDDON GHELEM PARVIACHEM BHIREM, VOIRU-PAVON VISCOTTUNO GHELLEM.  BHESAO
TUMCHER PODDOUM RE, SORGIMCHEA DEVA BAPACHEM...

Would appreciate very much if you could find the lyrics with music notes
for this song.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards.

[Goanet] GOA GOING DOWNHILL

[Aires Rodrigues]

A senior BJP leader informs that infuriated and outraged with the presence
of Vijai Sardesai and Babush Monseratte in Panaji, many staunch BJP workers
this time may have voted against Manohar Parrikar.

Vijai Sardesai has neatly dug Babush Monseratte’s political grave after
falsely promising to induct him into the cabinet by dropping one Goa
Forward Minister.

After the exit of the highly respected Prof Prabhakar Timble, the now very
defamed Goa Forward Party has ended up as a residual bin for all notorious
scamsters and tainted politicians. Goa’s safe abode for the discarded
political garbage. Coconuts galore and a congregation of Fot, Foting and
Fotingponn.

[Goanet] AIFF REPORT: CAPTAIN JHINGAN TURNS INTO A SPIDERMAN ‘FAN’

[AIFF Media]

Dear Colleagues,



Please find below the report from yesterday's match between India and St.
Kitts & Nevis.

*CAPTAIN JHINGAN TURNS INTO A SPIDERMAN ‘FAN’*



*MUMBAI:* Gestures are what a real man is all about.



Even as all eyes were on Captain Sandesh Jhingan on the dais to lift the
Hero Tri-nation Football series, Jhingan preferred to walk all the way to
the corner, pull out his arm band and wrapped it on Subrata Paul’s arm. The
message was clear, he felt Subrata was the ‘Captain’ and gestured him to
lift the winner's Trophy.

[Goanet] Link: The short history of global living conditions

[Albert Peres]

The short history of global living conditions and why it matters that we 
know it by Max Roser


https://ourworldindata.org/a-history-of-global-living-conditions-in-5-charts/?linkId=35102093

This is the introduction to Our World in Data – the web publication that 
shows how global living conditions are changing. This text was 
previously titled “A history of global living conditions in 5 charts”.


“All things considered, do you think the world is getting better or 
worse, or neither getting better nor worse?”. In Sweden 10% thought 
things are getting better, in the US they were only 6%, and in Germany 
only 4%. Very few people think that the world is getting better.


What is the evidence that we need to consider when answering this question?
