Looks like most congressmen in Goa, these days, have started suffering from "NAMOnia syndrome!" Not knowing what to do they have started scratching where there is no itching!
Few days back, Lourenco, an elected MLA and spokesperson of opposition party, said that the land acquired during congress regime for developing golf course at Terekhol in Pernem should be given back to owners of land? Governemnt should also initiate actions on erstwhile two congress ministers for acquiring land for golf in Terekol! And BJP government should not initiate any work in that area!! On this issue, south Goa MP Francisco Sardinha has evolved a new theory to proposed golf land! According to him, land allotted to outsiders by erstwhile Congress government should be taken back by the BJP government because Goa has now demanded Special Status. My questions to both Lourenco and Francisco are: How can projects like golf course be FEASIBLE during congress tenure and become UNFEASIBLE during BJP time? OR is it because congress party, after their downfall, realized that they would not get their SHARE from the said project now? Why Lourenco and Francisco are not naming the erstwhile two congress ministers involved in golf project at Terekhol? What did Lourenco as elected MLA and Francisco as elected MP do when congress government had initiated land acquisition for golf project? Is not this golf issue directly pointing fingers at Goa congress party indicating that Congress party are NOT GOOD PLANNERS instead they are GOOD LOOTERS! Lastly, what has happened to the land given to set up 7 SEZs in Goa! This question is more pertinent because it was during congress government (during Rane's regime) that the SEZ proposal in Goa had to be scrapped because of public outcry! Subsequently congress changed their hands and Digu was installed as chief minister. For one complete term, what did this change regime, under Digu, do in getting back the land from SEZs companies? Looks like, intentionally, both Lourenco and Francisco have forgotten the famous phrase: "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time."
