I feel appalled the way our mother tongue is being treated. My fellow goan brothers and sisters fought to make it our mother tongue. I find myself saying, why should my mother tongue be written in Devanagari, when for the last 450years it has been written in Romani, all the documents are written in Romani. Each and every Goan abroad can read the Konkani language in Romani. I am sure every Goan in Goa and abroad will agree with me. I feel the Government of Goa has not done enough for us Goans. I do hope this will change. I feel somtimes we Goans do not have a say, in our own affairs, of how our state is run. People who were not born of Goan parents have a better say in our affairs. I do hope this problem in Goa can be rectified. We have more people from outside Goa employed in Goa, and Goan brothers and sisters are made to look like second class citizens.
