Come to think of it, Soter is very right when he says that Matanhy is the
blue-eyed boy of the BJP.
Why not? Was he not the Tourism minister in the BJP ruled Goa government?
And did he not include the BJP among other parties, including the Goa Su-Raj
Party in the anti-SEZ movement [GMAS] that he has lead and is still leading?
But one thing is out of place here. It is not right for Soter to pick on
Matanhy by calling him the blue-eyed boy of the BJP. Soter must not forget
his own past, that he himself was a full-fledged member of the BJP until he
fell out with the BJP on the issue of not getting a ticket to contest. Soter
will be in a better position to explain himself on this issue and prove me
wrong.
Let not the 'sour grapes' sour up Matanhy's Campaign for a total and
convincing WIN.
Goa Su-Raj Party fully supports Matanhy Saldanha to represent South Goa (and
with it, North Goa too) in the august 15th Lok Sabha of the Indian
Parliament.
At least the Voice of Goans will be heard by the Nation through the
Parliamentary proceedings instead of the disgusting 'snores' of yester
years.
Vote for Matanhy Saldanha of the UGDP by discarding the sour grapes as
rotten ones.

It looks like there is an organized campaign to label Mathany as
communalist and discredit him, specially among Catholics,by labeling him
as BJP sympathizer.
Instead of wasting time on Character assassination and criticizing
Mathany, It would help if some of these upstart Activists direct all those
energies to come up with solutions and other alternatives.
One can love him or hate him. No activists have done so much for Goa and
most will never achieve it in their lifetime. He is one those few
Catholics who is accepted by Catholics,Hindus and Muslim as genuine,
trustworthy and secular person.
Goans, specially in Salcette , who have been voting for Congress all these
years,are looking for an alternative and were hoping that all these New
and Fresh NGOS will provide a breath of fresh air and and give them an
Obama. All they have been busy with is, criticizing and fighting among
themselves.
At the moment, Mathany with all his faults, is the best alternative in
South. If anyone has an better alternative,say so or hold your peace. Let
others move on!
It is not the non_goans or Ghantis we should be worried about,it is the
wolves in sheep's clothes who pretend to be saviors of Goa we should be
worried about!
May God save Goa!
