Aires Rodrigues has posed the question which is the caption of his post. What are the people of Goa doing to ensure that their voices are heard by the Parrikar Government in relation to their demands that this Cancer of Corruption is totally annihilated from the fabric of Goan society? Is he Going to execute truthfully his professed policy of ZERO TOLERANCE TO CORRUPTION?. Without pressure on the Chief Minister and his cabinet by the voters who put him into office, nothing is going to change. Therefore, we the people [aam aadmi] must keep on pressuring the government to take corrective measures starting with the Mining Issues for which there is no excuse but to adopt the recommendations of the Shah Commission, arresting all those responsible for the excesses in promotion and operating of illegal mining operations. THERE SHOULD BE NO PARDONS OF ANYONE BE THEY FORMER GOVERNMENT MINISTERS, CHIEF MINISTERS OR ANYONE. Justice must be meted out fairly and without prejudice. If this is done, it will dissuade those thinking of following suite and engaging in illegal activities of any kind to redirect their plans and stick to the legal means of obtaining wealth. I disagree with the proposed pardons or leniencies proposed by the Parrikar Government which favours those in power previously. This opens the door to pardoning every successive group of scoundrels who enter politics in order to enrich themselves at the behest of the people of Goa. This mining wealth must be controlled and shared by all the people of Goa. NOT ONLY THE FEW WHO HAVE STRINGS TO PULL in the Government and get away with murder.This action will benefit the whole of Goa and improve the livelihoods of every Goan if properly administered bringing about lower taxes, improved schools, hospitals, roads, etc. The overall benefits will be immense.
