As we know from past record that not all the issues or promises made

could well be the best option in the current situation, though it
could be a part or parcel if the winning party fights and gets
"special status" for Goa.

Mr. Carmos, I think on the issues raised by Mr. Joe, no one and or no party

You mean to say that if Manohar Parrikar's BJP okays English as MOI in Goa's

years?
Very good, indeed.

Before a single vote is caste ...

The voter in Goa is fast losing control over the electoral

Dear Ana Maria Fernandes,
Yes, we too believe that there is nothing wrong in 'priests' contesting
elections to serve the poor.
The only question is: 'what happens if priests get elected to serve not so

involved over the last few years on issues seriously affecting Goa and
after seeing a lot of facts first hand, I learnt a painful lessons on how

appalling is
It is true that a voter may be totally or partially dis-empowered
between elections, but he is in absolute charge of the "electoral
machine". (whatever that means). He or she decides who to vote, or not
to vote. It is, therefore, amazing that an election is decided before
even a single vote is cast
