Goans should take a leaf out of the Swiss book and ban new mosques and muezzin calls that the migrants want to bring to Goa. The most visible structure in the Chimbel slum - visible to the naked eye from the Mandovi bridge - is the mosque. r My Dear Rajan, You cannot be serious. You want Kangress to drop its pseudo-secularist credentials in a jiffy and then what? Make our commi comrades even more furious than they already are? There are currently four constituencies in Goa where migrants can decide who represents Goans in the assembly. If Kangress is serious about ruling Goa forever, than they should continue to allow migrants to come in so that at least ten constituencies are in a similar position. Things will change if and only if Salcette has more mosques than churches. That day is not far. Every religious community needs places of worship but when one hears of fourteen new mosques in Margao alone, one instinctively knows this is not religion - this is pure politics. Kangress babus have mastered: this and therefore when Narendra Modi - a ' Hindu zealot' demolishes over hundred hindu religious structures in Gujarat because they were illegal, no one takes blindest bit of notice. You try it in Margao - Digu with his bleeding heart will be at the front of the queue of howling protesters. Anil Desai
