Pratima's  outburst
It was more of self launch after her resignations from APP. It sure was a
motely crowd without sympathetic mass support  and berating the local
bodies and BJP MLA.As  a lawyer she should have taken recourse to legal
redress and not cheap publicity gimmicks.    In what way did it serve to
further the causecof victim.? There was not even a casual  hint of
immediate  compensation.Lives  of people are subsidiary to political
mileage.  .The filibuster was ignored by print media .Will she pursue the
matter to its logical conclusion ?.Salute Green Goa Foundation at least
for the first step of FIR ,if not the last.Public interst litigation has
not taken roots apart from public protests at the drop of hat .Deaths due
to potholes are too numerous to be ignored.I remember filing for
compensation with the collector  due to chlorine leak at  Dandeavado
Adv.Norma Alvares Goa Foundation and Adv.Rhado Rao extended voluntary
help.It was the first all India landmark suit  of   public Interest
liability  successful case.  THE compensation of less than a lakh  claimed
was paid in full  though firm paid almost 5 lakhs in expenses, .Governor
Jacob during President rule extended meaningful intervention
The PWD division of NH66 are ensconced in their ivory towers inspite of
written cautions and so too Electricity Dept. Panchayat, BJP MLA and silent
political guns.The attitude of indifference and silence is loud as
aurhorities have not even  announced compensation for negligence  and loss
of life
More accidents are waiting to happen on NH66 stretch since no permission is
needed for the acquired  trees since 1988.
