The Goa Government’s decision to appoint Additional Sessions Judge Mr. Pramod Kamat as the new Law Secretary is a step in the right direction to clear the mess in the Law department.
The removal of High Court Public Prosecutor Mrs Winnie Coutinho was another step in clearing the rot and muck that has been witnessed. It is very however regretful that the Goa Government allowed Mrs. Winnie Coutinho to continue as Public Prosecutor in the High Court for over two years after the Goa Government itself had concluded that she was incompetent and very corrupt. Now there should be a concerted effort to put the Law department in good order. To achieve this, it’s crucial and imperative that Goa get’s at the earliest possible a competent and honest Advocate General in place.
