Dear Mr. Aires Rodrigues, Sir,
Greetings to you and pleasure reading your variable mails that I receive on regular basis via Goa-net. Your email on political conundrum miring the Goan politics scenario made an interesting and avid reading. You have aptly put across and absolutely right as per se the so called mess the ex-CM Mr. Manohar Parrikar the IITian or could we call ‘The technocrat’ applied right technique with suitable angle to fulfill self desire to the brim and not to the brink. Now that he has been elevated to the High Office with a commanding post that of a Defense Minister would all the more reap a large moolah, I am sure he must be quietly laughing all the way for having pulled wool over many a sheep’s heads while he was in Goa cabinet Ministry. Now that Mr. Manohar Parrikar has vanished or vanquished his post to Mr. Ramakant Parsekar the incumbent present CM to lead the flock; little is known of his proven metal or his caliber and thus leaving out in cold Mr. Francis D’ Souza, the rightful second in command for the Post of Chief Minister after Mr. Manohar Parrikar; though many may have doubted his credibility of running the show but never judge a book by its cover. One has to read it to know what lies in it. Perhaps, if Mr. Francis D’ Souza had been given a chance, he may have shown his caliber, honesty, sincerity and to do true justice to the aspirations of people of Goa, in which event even God would have stand by him, if he undertook to discharged his duties morally and principally in the right direction; without fear or favour but serve the good cause and aspirations of the people of Goa in Toto with due justice and transparency but now that all seems vanished into the Blue and a long distant dream. But who knows what lies in still waters? Everything at the moment seems a conjecture and is a reality a distant dream? Once again keep up the spirit of joy de vivre; calling a spade a spade.
