In his usual cheap jibes Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar has been taunting Ravi Naik on the drugs issue. If the government has any evidence of Ravi Naik or his family's involvement with the drug cartel they should prosecute them in accordance with law. There isn't even an F.I.R registered against Ravi Naik or his family members, despite the fact that this Government has been in office since March 2012.
All that we have is a Legislative House committee report authored by a 7th Std passed Micky Pacheco who himself is soaked in crime and perhaps trying to settle scores with Ravi Naik. It is pertinent to note that two BJP MLAs Michael Lobo and Vishnu Wagh who were members of that House committee in their dissenting report stated that there was no evidence of Ravi Naik's involvement in the drug trade. As Ravi Naik has been out of power for the last over two years, Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar needs to now explain as to how the drug trade in Goa is still flourishing. That too, in the BJP strongholds. Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar had promised Zero tolerance to Corruption but over the last two years we have seen it rampant all over. Corruption cases are pending in the Courts against the Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar himself and Speaker Rajendra Arlekar besides many of his Ministers. Infact the Court ordered registering of an F.I.R under Section 420 against Tourism Minister Dilip Parulekar. While the BJP manifesto promises to scrap FDI in retail, can the CM explain how the foreign mafia is operating in Goa, in the northern coastal belt? Whose protection? Whose blessings, Mr. Parrikar? The BJP alike elsewhere in the country has been spending crores of rupees in the current Lok Sabha elections. If not from corruption, what is the source from where all this money is flowing? Over to you Mr. Chief Minister. Aires Rodrigues T1 - B30, Ribandar Retreat Ribandar - Goa - 403006 Mobile: 9822684372
