Gabe Menezes responded to Roland Francis message on the above subject saying: Yes bring in Modi and bring in Parrikar, together with their ideologies and pogroms. Clean out not only Goa but the whole of India; consign Muslims, Christians and other minorities to the dustbin - either that or recant and embrace! The BJP, RSS, VHP, Bajrang Dal and their ilk are all clean as a whistle, they have never, ever, committed even a smidgen of an infraction! DEV BOREM KORUM. Gabe Menezes.
My Response: Gabe spelt out heartfelt bitterness against Modi, Parrikar, BJP, RSS, VHP, Bajrang Dal and their ilk, their ideologies, and their programs - Nothing wrong in doing so. Gabe also appears disturbed because of the praises showered on Modi and Parrikar by Roland Francis, that too Roland being a catholic - Gabe don't you think every individual has a say in a democratic setup - don't you think that those days of 'his-masters-voice' speaking is abolished after India's independence and Goa's liberation! Anyway, without going much into the depth of this debate, I wish to ask Gabe 5 questions. Hope he replies without offensive language and that too within few lines of explanations to each question: 1) Given the heavy odds prevailing in India and Goa too, which would you, support - corruptions or communalism? 2) Within the elected politicians in India and Goa, whom do you propose as President & Prime Minister of India and Chief Minister of Goa? 3) Which according to you is the right ideology and program for the development of Goa Goans should follow? 4) Since liberation of Goa, Goa has witnessed too many chief ministers. According to you, which chief minister you rate to be the best chief minister and worst chief minister of Goa ever had or having? 5) When will the 'Reservation' policy be abolished from India and from Goa? OR Should India and Goa continue operating as government for 'Reservations' only? Best regards, U. G. Barad
