[Goanet] POLITICS IS NO LONGER A MISSION
Politicians should be ever so truthful in all that they speak and do. It is obnoxious when people we have elected as our representatives lie so blatantly and break promises at the drop of a hat. It shakes the people’s confidence in those they trusted and entrusted them with Power and the sacred duty to selflessly serve the common good with integrity and honesty. Those elected must be accountable for their acts of omission and commission. At no time should they circumvent the law. Lawmakers must never be law breakers. We elect them to conscientiously serve the community and not to swiftly rise from rags to riches. Politicians must not do what is politically expedient but do what is right. Sadly, our politicians are notorious for a litany of failed promises and U Turns knowing full well that they had no intention of fulfilling. The Rule of law has gone for a total toss with the selective targeting of political foes so very blatant. Can the ED, IT and CBI not openly see and investigate those within the BJP who have amassed abundant wealth by wrong doings? In a small state like Goa itself we have one too many. Our Colvale central jail would run out of space if the law were to catch up with them all. It is now a known fact that if one wants to be insulated from the rigors of law, joining, or even aligning with the BJP is the only way to be in a safe haven, temporarily shielded from the long arm of the law. Even a dip in the Ganges may not cleanse you of those sins. Emmanuel Macron, the French President wisely warned that ‘When politics is no longer a mission but a profession, politicians become more self-serving than public servants’. Some of our politicians have gone further by turning politics into a cash machine, a personal investment rather than a mission or even a profession! Given the calibre and performance of our politicians, everything is changing. People are now taking their comedians seriously and the politicians as a joke! Adv.

[Goanet] Vex Money - A Little Bit Of Cash For Your Dignity
A lovely little essay in the New York Times by Naomi Jackson about how the vulnerabilities of women can sometimes be protected by a little cash at hand. Not all women might think this necessary. Such women are either overly dependent on the men in their lives or have never been exposed to fend off life on their own. But to the independent Afro Caribbean women who are used to having to manage alone, for whatever reason, this Vex Money is a lifebuoy.

[Goanet] The Indian Supreme Court Has Crossed All Lines
No matter what other branches of the State fell from grace, the people of India knew that the judiciary was their last safe and steady resort. Justice in India was anything but timely but in the end it was there. British fairness in law ingrained in the Indian practice of it after independence, stood the test for over six decades, but it has been crumbling before our eyes. That’s the view of the man on the street. But now, leading advocates of the Supreme Court themselves are confirming this. The case ending in the death of Fr Stan Swamy brought it into focus. A frail, sick and elderly priest, who could do no harm was incarcerated in the most painful and humiliating manner and even when his death was impending, he got no relief. Here is this morning’s excerpt from The India Cable: Kapil Sibal isn’t alone: senior members of the Bar are hitting out at the Supreme Court for ensuring the prosecution and jailing of activists. In an explosive interview senior advocate Dushyant Dave took on the Supreme Court’s judgement in the Zakia Jafri case, the PMLA case, issues concerning the Master of the Roster system, and opaqueness of listing of cases by the Supreme Court registry. He says the Supreme Court has crossed all lines of propriety in ordering the prosecution of activists. Mansvani Ranganathan writes that the judiciary cannot become a hollow hope, as in Just Mercy and Jai Bhim. The Dushyant Dave interview: https://youtu.be/-w0LPq9ik0I Roland. Toronto.
