Dear Ai res,
Sensitive Goans have seen it coming as far as Ms. Dingra's ouster is
concerned. No big deal that.
What you say is perfectly right too. Likewise everyone is saying the same or
even better. It amounts to pure entertainment sort of while the rot is ever
increasing.
But with all that you and others are saying, do you and others have a action
plan to change things the way they are? Or are you people going to carry on
barking like harmless wayside dogs??
Have you seen today's papers? Joseph Robert Sequeira's birthday is news.
Next election we will certainly see the Calangute Dawood Ibrahim in action
with endless line of people falling to his feet.
Think about it.
rgds.

It is not surprising that Goa's unscrupulous and
impotent government headed by Chief Minister
Pratapsingh Rane has been successful in
unceremoniously and overnight shunting out Goa's
dynamic and upright Chief Secretary, Mrs. Kiran
Dhingra.
In Kiran Dhingra's exit the curse of the Goan
politicians will not end. Her successor J.P.. Singh is
an equally competent and upright officer who was very
tough on political interference when he was Collector
of Goa two decades ago.
20 years down the road JP Singh known to have a spine
of steel could have only grown wiser and will
confidently pick up where Kiran Dhingra has left.
JP Singh, welcome to Goa. It is no longer only a
tourist destination but also a gold mine for the
politicians and a landmine for honest and sincere
officers.
The degeneration and degradation of Goa's political
landscape seems to have commenced when our
Portuguese-educated Churchill Alemao became the Chief
Minister of Goa on 27th March 1990.
Over the years we have lost count of the number of
Chief Secretaries and Director General of Police who
have been sent packing for not succumbing to the
illegal and whimsical orders and fancies of the
Ministers in power.
Whether in Congress or BJP regimes, honest and
dedicated officers have had to bear the brunt and
humiliation of political arrogance.
It is high time our politicians realise that officers
have to work diligently and in their acts are
answerable, besides the legislature, to the judiciary,
the public at large and above all their own
conscience. Something our politicians have lost a long
time ago.
It is high time our Ministers realize that the rule of
law has to prevail and not the law of the jungle.
Otherwise it would make no difference having Abu
Salem, Abdul Karim Telgi or even Dawood Ibrahim at the
helm of affairs.
