Velingar ostracized and warned for hurting religious sentiments Poor Velingar ,a political paraiah ,ignored and shunned by own organisation and BJP. He lost security eri deposit, testing electoral waters contesting against official BJP candidate . .He wants to be relevant ,and revive political fortunes.Being married at 75 has now close comfort trying to impress .His strategy is to latch on to highly sensitive and emotive issues to catch attention. A motely crowd of faithful dogs share in the glaze of publicity as ,silent . dumb spectators .First he attempted in vain to capitalize on site of St Vaz premises but failed miserably.Now he seemed to have invented a new hypothesis about verification and examination of remains of revered patron of,Goa.The Saint finds acceptability among all faiths ,as non Catholic people representatives make a beeline just to be present and attend religious ceremony .Raising controversial storm about St Francis Xavier right on the door of exposition is in absolute bad taste .The peaceful ,tolerant attitude of catholics have resorted to legal recourse of filling complaints and FIR at various police stations. RSS has not openly backed the rabid dog, but the CM should have immediately arrested him as per complaints. From the swift response of faithful, it is definitely aimed at fanning fires of religious intolerance ,hurting religious sentiments in an unprecedented manner.The least CM should have taken legal cognizance with public outcry, arrest and warn him officially Silence is consent trying to take advantage for political fall outs .Our limits of tolerance are elastic , offering the other cheek to the aggressor. Catholics avoid controversial utterances demeaning other faiths, practices or beliefs. Nelson Lopes, Chinchinim Nelson Lopes Chinchinim https://lopesnelsonnat.wordpress.com
