The first public meeting of the Save Goa Front will be held on Sunday 10th September at 11 am at the Institute Menezes Braganza Hall, Panaji to launch a State wide agitation to preserve the Goan identity, root out corruption and to prevent the further degeneration of Goas cultural and moral fabric.
Mr. Suresh Pilarnekar, former Margao Sub Divisional Magistrate will be the guest speaker and will deliver a keynote address on how to Save Goa and its human values through spiritual education. The Sunday meeting will demand amongst others: 1. Scrapping of Corporation of City of Panaji's plan to have a garbage disposal site at Bainguinim, which is a religious and heritage site. 2. Immediate recall of Goas Governor S.C. Jamir for his cosmetic and partisan role and moreover as his security costs are an undue and highly exorbitant burden to the state and national exchequers. 3. A scrutiny and review of all ration and voter cards issued. 4. The immediate closure of all polluting companies in Goa and a stop to any more casinos. 5. A ceiling on the quantum of land that a person not of Goan origin may buy in Goa. 6. A halt to the rampant corruption and an immediate enquiry by the CBI and Income tax authorities into all the disproportionate assets of all current and former Ministers. 7. A government policy to tackle unemployment and a demand to immediately stop all unnecessary extensions in service beyond retirement and contract appointments. The meeting will be addressed by prominent social activists and call on all Goans to contribute intellectually to resuscitate Goa from its present disastrous state. Its time Goans reflect as to how their very peaceful state has today been transformed into a crime-ridden haven with murders, dacoities and burglaries being the order of the day. Goa is the only state of India where the migrants would soon outnumber the ethnic people because in Goa it has been very easy for migrants to instantly get ration and voters cards, unlike anywhere else in India. The Save Goa Front through a peoples movement would act as Goas watchdog and do everything possible to Save Goa from its current crisis.
