TRUELet me share my experience also towards Casinos :I was told by a Professor having knowledge in Environment etc that he says that Casino has come to stay forever. Just he gave me an example what he has gathered from his scientists colleagues. In this CCP elections a group has already been formed by Atanasio Monserrate Panjim MLA and everybody rest in Panjim decided to counter his plan and form an another group called We Ponjekars.. This earlier group what I called it a Safron group has received now a jitter as new group is opposing their ideology. Few of Catholics in Babush group started contacting prominent citizens in Panjim to support them probably on advice of their leader. This secret was leaked out and Congress leader was also contacted to field a weak candidate so that the safron group candidates gets comfortable m ajority. Now this newly formed group feels that the poison already started flowing within their group in order to destabilize them which has already been noticed and we peaceful senior citizens feels that this achievement could be by poring with heavy money weight supplied by Big Daddy. The CASINO vessels will never be shifted from Mandovi river as it is been felt by our original residents of Panjim. As it is rightly said by Rajan Parrikar that he felt vehicles moving in the night at 2 am when he was walking with his wife for safe and clean walk he saw vehicles zooming at that time possibly with casino guests and female employees working on Casinos who are coming from Nepal and other northern states are continously moving out in the night. There are new constructions coming up especially in Caranzalem and Dona Paula above 8th floor building is for the casino staff business. The CCP, Chief Secretary, Traffic Cell Tourism dept and other govt department are keen t o authorize and approve these constructions so that lots of Tourism activities are mush mooring in our state where this poison will surely spreading thus creating an Impact to transform this state of Goa into a Hell. Several pimps are seen in Miramar and close to hotels offering cards pamphlets and even a permission to enter into CASINOS parked in the River Mandovi. The gardens made are especially meant for them for ghantis to sit and outsiders visiting Panjim but not even a single Panjimite or a senior citizen will be benefitted. The bad luck for these owners is these constructions coming up for high rise are having big problems as they are finding difficulty to construct high rise buildings because the area is sandy and for example the 8th floor at least half of its size or more the excavation needs to go deep as the area is completely sandy and thank GOD the height is restricted otherwise they would have gone to 50 floors and above. Panjimite feels that these hig h rise building should stop its construction and whatever is under process must be revised and penalized or even demolished. For example this Big Daddy owners and the builder has already under pressure from Casino industry to see the construction is completed by hook and crook even though the approach road is much below the normal size which suppose to be 10 metres width instead of present size which is only 4.5 metres. The Parrikar Samadhi construction is huge one, whereas Parrikar burial can have construction of 5 square metre at the most. The huge construction coming up at his side of Parrikar burial is planned to accommodate Casino staff employees and other activities in order to flourish the movement of Casino industry and very soon our future government if comes in power other than bjp may not be able to stop. A museum could be of better choice if not demolish totally. Finally GOA is going to DOGS and out of our HANDS.
