Re: [Goanet] VOTE FOR MANOHAR PARRIKAR in May

I used to be a big supporter of Manoharbab, as were many members of the Catholic community in Panjim until these two incidents. In case Carmo and Cajetan are not aware, there is a very slim chance of Parrikar standing for elections in Panjim next year(he will try his luck in his native Mapusa, I'm guessing!) because of these two incidents. If he does he has absolutely no chance of winning.

Cajetan, You make it sound as if Goa makes up its mind collectively on whom to elect in any election. If at all it's anyone's fault (and keep in mind, the BJP has never been able to win a single election in Goa, though it managed to rule, directly and indirectly for nearly half-a-dozen years) it was the BJP's own fault. For many in Goa, it is still seen (not without reason) as an upper-caste, anti-minority political party. Some understand it's ideology, even those who don't, know what it implies for them. The Congress, meanwhile, is working hard to make the BJP's dream come true. By taking the support of the very same mafia that brought the BJP to power, and kept it there. (Both politicians and lobbies.) Media manipulation, including cyber-manipulation, is helping in a big way, too. If we keep trying ... we just might get there.

http://www.GOANET.org This month's Goanet operations sponsored by Mrs. Daisy Faleiro To sponsor Goanet operations, contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] A Chief minister asks the education department to come out with a VCD showing Goa's history. History cannot be changed. Whatever history has been established over the years is documented. A community made atrocities to gather people in their fold several hundred years back. That is history. That does not change anything that happens in the future. The department came out with the VCD. Now, whatever happened 500 years back, is it Parrikar's fault? Is it his fault that people don't realize that that history happend 500 years back and does not change anything?

That talks of his efficiency. Had it not happened, Goa would have lost it to some other state. IFFI is an event that has a high potential of generating revenue for the state. Goa has to capitalise on its popularity and Parrikar rightly tapped it. Money does not fall from the sky. All expenditure on IFFI is an investment that gets recovered several times.

I think he got an appropriately packed punch for an answer. Once again you are taking sides.You seem to imply that 99.9% of Goans are Dominic's friends and cuzners and botlers. Sounds Like Nehruvian elitism just after the liberation of Goa all over again ! COMMENT: Was it Manohar bab or the BJP that started the IITs and IIMs in India. Or are we in Orwellian 1984? Nice to know that Manohar has well qualified shoe-shine boys else where in the world also. I thought that Rajendra Arlekar, Dinar Bhatkar[incidentally, an IITian specializing in unsuccessful Sewage treatment plants and NRI meets till last year], Satish Dhond, Laxmikant Parsekar and VHP's unprincipled Principal Subhash [Sah-bash]Velingker and his cronies were enough. Perhaps not really so. Manohar and I have discussed ways to get 99.9 of Goan Youth who want to study hard to get into the elite Indian Institutes of Technology, all for the greater Good of Goa ! COMMENT: The records show that not a single student from a Goan school got into an IIT or IIM anywhere in India during the two consecutive, but short-lived, BJP-led Govts. in Goa. No prizes for guessing who was the BJP CM then. This year there were half a dozen entrants..and obviously Luizinho Faliero feleicitated them publicly in Goa. Of course, you were not in Goa then...since you continue in Manohar Fairyland! Manohar Parrikar has the reputation of a clean politician - a rarity in Goa these days - with CM Rane and his shadier son Viswajeet making shady land deals in the CM.s office these days. You can try to figure out when and from whom Manohar took bribes when he was CM and you will come up short Thats an achievement in itself ! COMMENT: This is one point I have to agree with you. Manohar bab CLEANED the city of Panaji [with help from Sanjit Rodrigues]. He also CLEANED the state's coffers to fund the IFFI [ostensibly to be re-imbursed by the central BJP Govt, but that never happened] and fund his party through the goodwill of the contractors. The footpaths are still not paved with gold...or properly with paver blocks, the Garcia da Orta garden is in a mess. To his credit, he has got a good job done of the Old GMC building and we have a Multiplex. Unmingled joys to no man befall; Who least, hath some. Who most, hath never all wrote H.W. Longfellow Parrikar did his fair share of land conversions under Section 17 of the TCP Act. He was also the Chairman of the TCP Board that prepared the DRAFT FINAL REGIONAL PLAN 2011 between 1999 and 2005 for the longest period as the CM between 2000 and 2005! Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. It is the likes of Manohar who bastardize history and put in in VCDs like GOA FREEDOM STRUGGLE using lackeys with convenient names and easy morals. Flee away from ambition, by that sin fell the angels.wrote John Milton in 'Paradise Lost'. in 2005, the communal harmony paradise of Goa was regained. the Congressmen only rob our money...not our value system and beliefs. I have known Manohar Parrikar for a long time, since the mid 70s infact. At IIT Bombay Manohar's greatest achievement was when he cleaned up the organizational mess (kitchen and dining hall) and turned it around to look like a 5-star restaurant. As Goa CM, he will also clean up the currrent mess in the Goa Government and we will finally attain Our Goa Dourada (Golden Goa) ! COMMENT; Tenga! Manohar bab is NOT likely to become Goa's CM now or ever! Cleaning a hostel mess or the mess some hostelites make on week-ends is one thing, running a Government in Goa is another. One historical fact is that the BJP never had a majority of MLAs elected on its symbol in Goa or at the Centre. Those who buy MLAs to cobble up a majority pay through their nose. Manohar knows how he lived with the bunch of fools that he had for Ministers [save Matanhy and Digambar] and had to try and survive by asking his Speaker to resort/accept forgery and deceit.
