To Goanet - Last evening I was at my ATM machine on the 18th June Road in Panjim. I saw my bank's guard saunter across the street to the bank on the opposite flank, to participate in the following conference of security guards and their loitering colleagues -

Note that it is also encroachment of public pavement space. This whole security guards racket is a big sham. All it does is contribute more bodies from Orissa and elsewhere to Goa's swelling migrant population. The menace of loiterers from all over India grows by the hour in Goa. In Panjim you see them everywhere - around those zillion bhelpuri stalls on the riverside promenade, around paanwallahs, on pavements, in our jardins, and so on.
