I have said this before and I will say it again. No political party in India and Goa is secular. Each and everyone of them are non-secular and communal and casteist ridden. And why not ? After all these type of agendas do yield votes and create vote banks based on which the political parties thrive.
The Gujarat fire started with the Godhra incident in which Congress municipal councillors and a mayor were involved directly. The VHP then aided by the BJP completed the revenge factor. Does that mean the BJP is better or worse than the Congress or vice versa ? They are both equally bad. I bet you the violence being perpetrated in Gujarat in the last week or so is now instigated by the Congress. Why ? Because it is no longer in the interest of the BJP at the center and in the state of Gujarat to continue it but it is very much in the interest of the Congress at present. The BJP has achieved it's political ends and so has the Congress. The only way to get out of this vote bank politics with communal lines is to get rich. When the country and the people are rich the communal/casteiest lines will not be so rigid. Such as seen in most affluent countries. And the only way to get rich is via good governance. Which is why I am for Manohar Parrikar and BJP's rule in Goa...after all they have proved to be the best so far if the last one year is anything to go by. So what if he dissolved the Assembly in anticipation of a dissident move against his rule ? From Goan interests I would think that is the best lesson he taught these perpetual defectors who only want to continue their unholy corruption. After all did we really want to see Khalap as CM with more corruption on the line ? This is the best chance Goa has to choose good legislators. Let's hope they view it positively and act with vigour to get rid of the corrupt and third rate politicians.
