[Goanet] Nuisance of sounds nuisance by rumbler strips

2023-03-02 Thread Nelson Lopes
The ideal way to control traffic and safety of pedestrians  is by traffic
lights and cameras to check on errant drivers
In Goa the highways are being  decorated with rumbler strips
The cure is worst than disease.  The rumbler strips damage vehicles and
injuries to spinal chord and pregnant women and are scientifically
pronounced as positive  health hazzard. The nuisance of intolerable,
rattling sounds vibrating structures and disturbing peace of elderly, sick
is 24x7.The protection needed is for certain peak  hours.The sound
pollution act of Goa provides peaceful atmosphere  beyond at least
10.p.m.There is no road discipline and motorist defy  to reduce speed  or
respect the measure.Overtaking dangerously on rumbler strips is  another
more dangerous  ourcome.The height has to be  reduced as it serves no
purpose of safety to riders or vehicles
The appeals to  GSPC board to measure  the decibels is falling on deaf
years inspite of continous reminders to act even on payment of
service.There is much to gain by unfailingly  visiting music  festivals to
monitor and enforce regulations The police too piously visit dance halls
.PWD opines that police must take note of rumbler sound  nuisance and is
ridiculous suggestion
The well intended measure of safety is not effective
At DANDEAVADO on NH 66
Mass protests . Appeals to PWD.traffic  control..CM. Deputy Collector
Signature campaigns are treated with impunity and refusing to visit the
site and assure themselves  of nuisance  to elderly sick senior citizens
right to at least peaceful night siesta.The sound does not disperse as the
residences are in close proximity with sound felt over a radius 150 metres
and beyond

[Goanet] As you grow old

2023-03-02 Thread Nelson Lopes
As you grow old

As you age , mature and grow old
Physical and mental changes are a galore , manifold
Adjust without laments,self pity to life new
A joyous,  happy life to renew

The eyesight  fades  becomes weak
Walking, climbing need aid of  stick
The hearing impaired  with substantial  loss
Wrinkles  and grey hair are an old age across

Various problems arise  with health
Most have fortunately  accumulated  wealth
Visits to doctors hospital are now on the rise
Forgetting ,misplacing is endless no surprise

In advancing age  ears need aid and care
Loud sounds, even music can't bare
Visits of friends , family and  others are rare
No demand and requests your company to share


Friends circle  decreases  to a miniscule few
Many have passed away closely  that you new
  In the society recognition  dwindles, importance  cannot command
In the home, family  attention cannot demand

Be less critical , complain or  seek attention  to your  woes
Best as long as possible  to be on your feet and toes
Ample time now to  seek God and pray
Thoughts of final journey  are real  and here to stay

Family and near ones  eye on  what they can get
Distribute equitably let's you forget
The desires  for food ,traveling do  decrease
Medical problems rise and loneliness increase

As you advance in age  demands be reduced to less
Be happy not  to curse  but to  bless
Take joys and sorrows  along in your stride
Obstacles of emotions  feelings   of unwanted do override

Interests and hobbies time alone  will save
Loneliness. Indifference in life  to boldly brave
  In old age mental, physical  problems aggravate and  are grave
Live and let live without regrets on your journey to the grave

Looking  inwards at yourself have  now time to spare
Like a child  feel need of  company . help and care
Ruminate over all the goodness , gifts in life you did share
Revenge, hatred, anger let  not your joy tear

Old age is a blessing,  gift to live long
Sing and praise Divine as you sail along
Indifference,  importance  in society, family  may not be wrong
Self confidence and worth not empathy , sympathy make you feel strong

Envy and pride to live and enjoy benefits of old age
Not many of your friends had this privilege
Bible says long life is a blessing and gift
Those whom God loves  share the benefit

[Goanet] Flyover instead of bypass is a scam

2023-03-02 Thread Nelson Lopes
The residents of Dandeavado at Chinchinim on NH 66 have persistently
pleaded with NHA authority and others consistently  for by pass  over 10
years .The by  pass suggested and surveyed  along 2kms stretch is through
fallow fields of comminidade and  according to reliable estimates should
not cost Rs50 crores It does not displace any settlements or demolish
houses en route
Besides all trees along the track will have to be cut down The water,
telephonelines electric  poles and transformers  will  need shifting.The
acquisition was for two lanes and that has been done. Asfor 4 lanes the
requirement is 45 metres but Authorities arebent on squeezing within  30
metres on the stretch
The two major junctions on this stretch have to be accommodated at a huge
cost  and will add to the budget
The proposed Flyover is designed to benefit the contractor at almost 7
times the cost of bypass and with ample scope for expansion
The recent fresh acquisition inspite of assurances is surprising .It is
dividing unity of  residents protest by selective acquisition and
deliberately protecting illegal structures on the stretch through
influential pressures destroying century old structures .Exhaustive
representation to all authorities concerned are ignored without
justification only to exclusively  favour builders lobby  with contracts of
flyover.The explanation land is avaiable is no justification .Beyond
iskiniband the land is still to be acquired and reason of delay is
misleading. The flyover  of 25 m will leave a gap of 2.5 metres  from
acquired 30 m and will pose enormous problems for houses , services lines
shifting  as aforementioned
The flyover  at the huge  cost is a scam need to be probed,  specially
when cost effective bypass is avaiable and feasible It is purposeful drain
on the exchequer in disguise
The land acquired at Rs 13 m2 can be repaid with interests along with Rs
800 m2 for structures
The reason for flyover over bypass is not financially convincing at all

[Goanet] LAND VIOLATIONS WITH POLITICAL ASHIRWAD

2023-03-02 Thread Aires Rodrigues
With tacit political blessings we are witnessing rampant filling of low
lying fields and hill cutting across Goa. All this is happening also in
connivance with the various governmental authorities who are conveniently
turning a Nelson’s eye to all these unpardonable environmental violations.

It must be ensured that all those involved in land filling and hill cutting
must be ruthlessly and severely punished in accordance with law. These
culprits must be made to restore all that land to its original position.
It is time to say enough is enough to the ever so greedy and heartless land
mafia who have been mercilessly uncaring about the environmental
consequences of their misdeeds. They need to be named and shamed.

The local revenue and police officials must keep strict vigil and must be
held accountable for any unauthorised land filling and hill cutting in
their jurisdiction. The law must also be made more stringent to deal with
all these serious offences against nature. It is a tragedy for Goa that
despite the law prohibiting hill cutting and filling up of low lying land
this heinous crime still goes on.

Ed Begley Jr, an American actor and environmentalist makes a very pertinent
and challenging statement aimed at every government official, potential
land destroyer and every citizen ‘I don’t understand why when we destroy
something created by man we call it vandalism, but when we destroy
something by nature we call it progress’.

[Goanet] What does ChatGPT "think" of Goanet?

2023-03-02 Thread Frederick Noronha
ChatGPT on Goanet:

How efficient has Goanet been as a source of sharing news and views related
to Goa?

As an AI language model, I don't have access to real-time data on the
efficiency of Goanet as a source of sharing news and views related to Goa.
However, based on my knowledge of Goanet, I can provide some insights.

Goanet is an email-based network that was established in 1994 to share news
and views related to Goa and Goans. It is a platform for individuals and
organizations to exchange information, opinions, and ideas on various
topics related to Goa, including culture, politics, environment, and
development.

Over the years, Goanet has played an important role in bringing together
people from different backgrounds and providing a space for them to share
their perspectives on various issues. It has also been instrumental in
raising awareness about important issues affecting Goans, such as the
impact of mining on the environment and the preservation of Goa's cultural
heritage.

However, like any other platform, Goanet has its limitations. As an
email-based network, it may not be as accessible or user-friendly as some
of the more modern social media platforms. Additionally, since it is a
closed network, it may not reach a wider audience outside of its subscriber
base.

Overall, while it is difficult to measure the efficiency of Goanet as a
source of sharing news and views related to Goa, it has undoubtedly played
a significant role

[Goanet] MIRAMAR CIRCLE WORK ON UPGRADATION

MIRAMAR CIRCLE WORK
ON UPGRADATION

STEPHEN DIAS
DONA PAULA
9422443110
2nd March 2023

I was told GSUDA is now active on two important issues in Panjim in recent
times one is at Miramar circle and other is at Campal Stadium grounds under
Smart City Mission.
At Miramar circle its garden is likely to be renovated. The tiling work
around the circle I assumed was never attended since Portuguese left Goa.
The surroundings of  this circle had cemented tiling covers for the water
drainage accumulated due to regular spraying of garden and the rains. Its
outlet was supposed to go in front of Pergola through a duct where there
was expectation that the water would be absorbed by the sand on the beach.
I feel this duct at the circle which was opened needs to be closed
permanently as it doesn't serve any purpose. But no one understood the
volume of water over the years accumulation on road due to rains. There was
not even a rudimentary canal taking the water to the river and no one
attempted to fix this over the years which is why Miramar circle area near
the PERGOLA gets inundated once the rains start as there is no outlet for
this water to go anywhere.
Few days back, one fine morning the CCP and the Smart City personnel
decided to attend to the titling work which we see now the cemented covers
are lifted for maintenance and the whole circle is in a mess. (see the
photo).

Ex-Mayor Surendra Furtado and was candidate in this area used to raise the
issue that this water gets accumulated due to non leveling of the drain to
Panjim side and the problem of inundation is seen to nearby colonies.
Campal colony is the main target to get affected and luckily there is a
pond which gets filled during the rain. Also the other side of road there
is another colony called Indoor stadium and their residents are also
equally affected due to this overflow coming from Miramar circle. This
flooding could be avoided if proper leveling is done to direct the water to
a now existing new drain.

We have now another dumpyard area which is converted into a mountain hill
at Campal Football  Stadium where all the mud extracted from nearby sideway
road recently upgraded and this mud was recently dumped into this so called
Campal football stadium. I have just visited recently this Campal ground
and found a number of trucks making trips belonging to GSUDA under the
banner of BCPL are plying to clear the mess. Casually I inquired about the
foundation stone which was inaugurated many years back of our Ex Chief
Minister Manohar Parrikar and attended by high dignitaries which was
existing at the corner of Campal football stadium. And surprisingly those
supervisors of GSUDA at this site told me that foundation stone is missing
and most probably been lifted for safety purpose as mud and pipes might
have been dumped over it or taken to GSUDA premises.
 Hearing this, the million dollar question in my mind is whether this
Campal Stadium will ever be turned back into a  Footbal stadium?
