We at GSRP made it a point to visit the protesting Cavremkars at the Azad Maidan, today this evening. They were mostly women and children among men totaling aprox about 80 to hundred. It was a pleasure to address them and make them laugh a bit making them forget their concerns for the future, their sorrows.
I introduced myself as a 'KANEKAR', one who is selling Onions and not as a politicians. This was something that they did not expect and it was claps all around. "Do you see just one onion vendor or a line of them when you go to the market?" "Do you pick up your load from the first one you see or check out others too for the quality and price?" "Does anyone give you onions for free?" "If one vendor wants to give you his onions for half the going price or less, do you open your bag?" " NO?" "Why?" "Because you know that most of those onions will be rotten if not all. Isn't it?" "What happens when you cut onions?" "Your eyes get stung and tears come out, Isn't it?" If the onion is rotten inside, will those tears be of joy or anger?" " Will you not be happy if you get good onions for less?" Does it not take some pains, time and effort to find out this commodity when you are shopping?" "When you cut these good onions will your tears not be of JOY?" Consider the coming elections as a market place where all political parties are selling political onions. If there were just two vendors, you would probably avoid the Nagpur onion walla and go to the home grown one, because the Nagpurwala makes you sweat in the hot sun at far away Panjim's Azad Maidan, as if you had nothing else to do, tormenting and harassing you, not giving in to your demands. But is that possible to have only two onion vendors in the political market place? In fact every one will be squatting there tempting you with their brand of onions. Therefore, you must be smart enough to check out the onions thoroughly before you invest in them, turning them over, pressing them to find out if they are soft and rotten, checking out the price, etc. NO? Because, when you take your onions home, you should not cry bitter tears of frustration and helplessness coupled with anger and irritation for making the wrong choice. In fact your tears should be the tears of JOY for having made a choice to help yourself and not the Onionwalla. And if you should come to check out 'our' [GOA SU-RAJ PARTYS] onions, you will see that ours have just '5 member cabinet', not 12 (your tax money saved so that the crippling load on the future of your children, the 70,000/- crores of public debts may be paid off), No Corporations and Institutions to MLAs (these Organizations will make profits rather than losses. Example they built 3 toilets for 6 crores, can you imagine? ), You get Co-operative Mining as well as Rs. 10,000/- per month per every Goan Household per month for the next 25 years thrown in as mining profit share so that you don't need Laadly Laxmi, BPL schemes etc etc.). You get your agriculture thriving. You get your forests back. You get rid of MOPA to save your beloved Dabolim airport besides getting the Navy out. You get Kadamba running from 5 a.m to 2 a.m. on new and original tyres, not re-threaded ones. You get fly-overs and bridges as well as fast moving river boats for transport so that you don't have to slog it out on roads and die under the wheels of buses and trucks. You get MOI for your children in primary schools in their mother tongue Konkani so that your kids understand what they are taught, these vital instructions to stay with them forever and go to make them Goans of repute, capable of learning English, Marathi, Hindi, French, Portuguese or even Chinese and Japanese in their life-time and be successful, with state of the art PRIMARY SCHOOLS throughout Goa......... and, excellent law and order so that they do not break the bones of those who are put in jails, and refuse to take action on the culprits in spite of everything been recorded on CCTV cameras. You will probably have to sleep here if I go on and on, so I better stop. And one last thing so that you can think about it while you are travelling back home to Cavrem. You get your own High Command in Goa so that if you want to throw a stone and break some heads for taking wrong decision which make you suffer like this, then you do not have to travel all the way to Delhi,Nagpur, or elsewhere. You can just pick up a stone and throw it right here in Goa, anywhere, on any one to draw blood. All this ended in a terrific applause. Safe journey back home, Cavremkars, until we meet again. GSRP for Goa's Own High Command in Goa. BTW: THIS IS GOING TO BE GSRP'S CAMPAIGN SPEECH FOR ELECTIONS 2016-17.
