A senior Goa Government officer Balkrishna S. Borkar has been issued a show
cause notice for openly campaigning for the BJP. Balkrishna Borkar is the
Managing Director of Goa Electronics Ltd which is a subsidiary of Economic
Development Corporation (EDC). He is also the Deputy General Manager at EDC.
In a complaint to the Chief Electoral Officer yesterday, photographic
evidence was submitted that Balkrishna Borkar on Friday 27th January was
seen next to Panaji candidate Sidharth Kuncalienkar at the BJP campaign at
Miramar Beach which was held from 6.45 am to 7.30 am where free breakfast
was served.
It is a matter of great concern that government employees including some
senior officers are in blatant violation of law participating in the
election campaigning for the 4th February Goa Assembly elections. Immediate
action has been sought that Balkrishna Borkar be forthwith suspended so
that it acts as a deterrent to other officers venturing in violating the
Model code of Conduct.
