In the run up to the 2012 Goa elections, politicians are out to woe the voters with a lot of goodies. A former CM has realized his foully after so many years of committing the same Mr. Matany Saldanha is preaching the lessons of forgiveness only to achieve his goals in life and ambitions of BJP to rule the state, who are using his clean image to garner the support of minorities .But if the situations for the minorities have not changed in other states ruled by the party like orissa and karnataka where Christians are ill-treated , then how will the trial and error method work here .As a true goan I never expected a crusader of the Goan cause to go and join the BJP and back the national agenda and ideologies of BJP. It looks like he has forgotten the most important demand of the Goan people a Special status for the state which the BJP will never acknowledge. The fact that Mr Mathany is now talking about progress of the country, India and Indians itself smells of the taking over of his mind by the ideologies of BJP who believe in akhand bharat and hindutva .They also talk about bringing the Gujrat model to our state politics. Here too they are mistaken and has forgotten the voilence lashed out at the minorities during the gujrat roits. http://tehelka.com/story_main35.asp?filename=Ne031107NarodaPatyaMassacre.asp&page=2
Mr Mathany soon after joining preaches forgiveness to such a party who never condemn the acts committed against the minorities. May be he is only talking about the Parikar Govts's foully during the tenure of BJP in Goa. Be the forceful entry into the Bishops palace, Good friday holiday and destroying name plates of Christian houses in Panjm is hard to forget and forgive. The communal turn of events in cuncolim in the year 2006 is also a bolt on the image of the BJP in Goa
Only a regional party with the goans themselves taking decisions about Goa and the future of our children is what every goan is dreaming about. the Goan people has to decide whether to bring in a change we have to ring in another national party or look up to the regional parties and the clean individuals entering the fray who can give us a clean government and cater to the needs of goans and Goa . We should not let the non goans decide about Goa and its people but we the people of Goa has to bring in the much needed change in this election by voting for the safety and securing the future of our Children.Corrruption is an evil in the soceity affecting a very few but commulalism is the devil which once unlashed can destroy the whole society at large.
