mapusa market in a mess- published on 01.04.2016

Mapusa market in
a mess
Mapusa Market is the most sought after market due to the
availability
of all the items within a certain radius. But
the
roads and the movement of vehicles are becoming
more
and more chaotic day by day in this city. Dusty and bumpy
roads
dug up for sewerage pipe lines are not properly mended
and
are very dangerously waiting for mishaps to occur. Roads
which
were wide enough for 2 four wheelers to pass through
have
become usable only for one vehicle due to the haphazard
work
of the contractor. If at all you manage to enter the market
after
all the trafic jams, road blocks and neck/ hip breaking travel.
You
will not get a decent parking place for your two-wheeler
(forget
the four wheeler) as most of the parking spaces along
the
main gate are occupied by long distance ofice goers who
keep
their vehicles parked from morning to evening and travel
by
bus to and fro. Inside the market the mess is more. Walking
and
shopping is a nuisance as two wheelers keep on giving you
fright
as you walk with your
shopping
bag. Just the other
day
a lady rider bumped in a
man
inside the market area lost
control
and fell. Although one is
not
supposed to get the wheels inside the market the poor pedestrian
had
to bear the brunt of the lady Jackie Chang who beat
the
hell out of the pedestrian in full public view and more beating
he
got from the people who came in support of the weakling.
Shoppers
are facing with parking woes and on top fear of getting
on
the way of two wheeler riders inside the market not to forget
the
back breaking dusty ride to get to the market. Due to these
factors
businesses are suffering heavy losses as less customers
visits
the shops inside the market Coming back to the state of
affairs
of the concern govt. departments, the shoddy works of the
contractor
doing the sewerage pipe line job is very much open
for
anybody to see but no action on the ground as tyres of vehicles
just
sinks in the tank holes covered with loose soil. Hope the
concern
MLA, councilors and PWD will take a little extra efforts
in
relieving the common man of his woes in visiting the Mapusa
city.

Mapusa Market chaos 28.03.2016
Editor sir,
Mapusa Market is the most sought after market due to availability of all the items within a radius . But The roads and the movement of vehicles are becoming more and more chaotic day by day in this city. Dusty bumpy Roads dug up for sewerage pipe lines are not properly mended and are very dangerously waiting for mishaps to happen. Roads which were wide enough for 2 four wheelers to pass have become singular usable due to the haphazard work of the contractor . If at all you manage to enter the market after all the traffic jams, road blocks and neck/ hip breaking travel . you will not get a decent parking place for your two-wheeler (forget the four wheeler) as most of the parking spaces along the main gate are occupied by long distance office goers who keep their vehicles parked from morning to evening and travel by bus to and fro. Inside the market the mess is more . walking and shopping is a nuisance as two wheelers keep on giving you fright as you walk with your shopping bag. just the other day a lady rider bumped in a man inside the market area lost control and fell. Although one is not suppose to get the wheels inside the market the poor pedestrian had to bear the brunt of the lady Jackie Chang who beat the hell out of the pedestrian in full public view and more beating he got from the people who came in support of the weakling.

Comment 10:11 HRS IST
Panaji, Mar 16 (PTI) A social arm of Goa church has taken a dim view of notices issued to those objecting to the Defence Expo scheduled in the state later this month.
"The right to peaceful dissent and opposition against various forms of injustice is a fundamental right under the Freedom of Expression under Article 19 of the Constitution and a fundamental duty as in Article 51-A," Council for Social Justice and Peace's executive secretary Fr Savio Fernandes said in a statement issued here.
"The unprecedented instances of abuse of state machinery and judiciary by the state and Union government in a bid to curb the secular, socialist and democratic spaces of citizens by concocting stories about possible threat to security and law and order is a matter of serious concern and absolutely deplorable," he said.
The Council has appealed to Goa government to adopt a path of dialogue with citizens and refrain from misusing state power to repress dissent from the people against destructive and wasteful development projects erasing the rich ecology of the state and threatening livelihood of the local people.
The notices were issued by the South Goa district administration yesterday to several protesters who have been holding demonstrations against the upcoming event, including local panch member Charles D'Silva, for agitating against the Expo to be held at Naqueri-Betul village, scheduled between March 28 and 31.
The issue was yesterday also raised on the floor of House by Congress legislator Aleixo Reginaldo Lourenco, who claimed that the government has "snatched democratic right of the people to agitate".
A section of people have been protesting against the DefExpo claiming that they were not taken into confidence while deciding the venue for the event.
With more than 977 companies and 46 countries registering for the upcoming Defence Expo scheduled in Goa, the Defence Ministry earlier said the event is steering the path of steady growth.

Vote a Regional party to secure our childrens future on herald 2012 elections
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 their foully after so many years of committing the same and Mr. Matany Saldhanha is preaching the lessons of forgiveness only to achieve his goals in life and ambitions of BJP to rule the state, who are using the clean image to gamer the support of minorities .But if the situations for the minorities have not changed in other states ruled by the party like orissa ad karnataka where christians are illtreated , 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 BJP and back the national agenda and ideologis of BJP. It looks like he has fogotten the most important requirement for Goa , the 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 akand bharat and hindutva . He also was talking about bringing the Gujrat model to our sate politics. here too he is mistaken and has fogothen what happened to the muslim community during Godra., how even a mother's womb was torn open and the foetus held on a sword and the roiters dancing its brutalism and Mr Mathany soon after joining preaches forgiveness to such a party who never condemn the acts commited against the minorities. May be he is only talking about the Parrikar Govts's foully during the tenure of BJP in Goa but the forceful entry into the Bishops palace , good friday holiday and destroying name plates on christian houses cannot be forgiven . his gujrat model, a national party which also has got their national high commands to decade on every action pertaining to Goa and goans without understanding what the niz goankar wants.
Only a regional party with the goans themselves taking decisions about Goa 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 at large.Dont 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.
