An interview of Pausilip Dourado a Niz Goenkar by Bebdo

Niz Goenkar will win Goa’s Assembly elections this time, says our candidate Pausilip Dourado

I am happy to inform my fellow Niz Goenkar brothers and sisters that in pursuance of our goal to bring in a socio-economic and political revolution in Goa and to preserve the unique identity of Goa, our culture, our language, our land and our heritage for our future generations to come, we have been grooming our young leaders for the battle ahead. The battle of the ballots which we call elections, is a very tricky affair and has to be fought on many fronts.

Niz Goenkar Candidate Mr. Pausilip D

Although, we have so far kept most of our leaders away from the public eye as a precautionary measure, it is sometimes necessary to bring in the open some of them, one by one. Our young leaders are devoted to the cause of Niz Goenkar and are even ready to give their blood to save Goa from being looted, raped and pillaged by the non-Goans and the illiterate-goonda politicians who are currently ruling us. Our young leaders have sworn an allegiance to Mother Goa and her children. Our young leaders have sworn that they would never allow our Mother Goa to be sold to the highest bidder as is being done right now by the Congress government with the help of the NCP (nagoenancho chorancho poxx). And our young leaders have sworn that they would ensure that Goa will always be for the Goans and not for the Ghanttis.

So presenting to you here my fellow Goan brothers and sisters, our first candidate for the Assembly Constituency of Nuvem. His name is PAUSILIP DOURADO. We request all our Niz Goenkar brothers and sisters to support our Niz Goenkar Pausilip Dourado and to work for him on behalf of Niz Goenkar right now to ensure his victory in the Assembly elections.

WE HAVE TO START OUR WORK NOW. NOW AT THIS VERY MOMENT TO ENSURE THAT PAUSILIP WINS WITH A HUGE MARGIN.

To know more about who Pausilip Dourado is, we are presenting an interview with him which we had recently in Goa.

Pausilip Dourado, Yours Truly Bebdo and many prominent citizens and members of the business community met at a top city hotel to discuss various issues regarding the preparations for the elections and how to save Goa from being raped and looted by the 40 chors.

Our meeting also deliberated on the dynastic politics that is being promoted in Goa with the sons and daughters of the 40 chors trying to contest the next election as if Goa belongs to their fathers and the other Goans are their maids and servants.

To fine tune our strategy further, we had a meeting at the residence of Pausilip Dourado. The ambience was perfect and at the appointed time, I made it to his residence.

I was greeted with a big smile by his young son who welcomed me with love and affection and made me feel at home in the living room. As they say that the first impression is the last impression, my first impression of Pausilip Dourado is that of a man who is devoted to his family. This was reflected by the way he cares for his parents. His ancestral house stands intact with the whole family staying jointly along with the parents. John F. Kennedy has said that a family that prays together stays together and Pausilip’s devotion to his family brought back those wise words to my mind.

There were many people who had come to meet him, as he is a social worker and helps those who come to him to seek his assistance. He told me that it is a daily routine for the people who come to see him with their needs, to sort out difficulties and seek help as required.

To prove to our Niz Goenkar brothers and sisters that we don’t hide things even from our own members, we are publishing here each and every aspect of WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY AND HOW of PAUSILIP DOURADO in an interview format:

NIZ GOENKAR: Can you tell us about yourself and your part in the social and political arena?

PAUSILIP DOURADO: I was never a politician but a well educated and humble social worker from my childhood. I grew up not in luxury but by working hard from my younger days. Staying up to morals and knowing what is shame or to be ashamed, I was brought up by my parents in a God fearing manner. Life was neither easy nor difficult, it was just a ladder I was struggling to climb safely. I had a dream to earn my bread in a dignified way, to be a businessman and live a good family life. With my hard work, I have achieved it earlier than I thought, in the righteous ways though I faced many hardships from the bureaucracy.

How did you start your career?

Yes, initially, I worked as a mining foreman and then became an ore transporter. Gradually, I had bigger dreams and I am in mining today, first as a contractor and now doing my own. I also own barges and one of them is the State of the Art barge that is used for ore transportation.

How about Goan youth, do you employ them?

Thank you for asking me this question, yes and very much yes. I employ about more than 100 people who are direct employees and 90 per cent of them are boys from my village and surrounding areas. They are well paid and looked after and there is hardly a chance they will leave me and go unless they find better opportunities. The remaining 10 per cent are the ones from other states who avail yearly vacation and are housed at different sites of my business.

When you talk about mining, how much of your business is illegal or against the wishes of the local people?

Seriously, I have no illegal mining and I have no intention of doing something that is illegal. I will never do or enter into a partnership for illegal deeds to make money. My business is 100 per cent legal and I do not have issues with the villagers wherever mines are there. I can understand the hardships of the people of these areas and they are well looked after, locals only employed or contracted and by God’s grace, I never ran into trouble with the locals for the past decade that I have been in this business.

Since I am a social and political worker who is looking after the welfare of the people,, the Environment Minister Aleixo Sequiera tried to harass me in the past by checking activities of my business and slapping false charges. However, he realized that he was wasting his time and left me on my own.

I know that you contested the last election against Aleixo Sequiera and lost, what factors contributed to your defeat?

Another good question. In the last Assembly elections, it was not just Aleixo, there was Remy Fernandes who entered into the fray at the last moment. I lost by a very little margin and if Remy had not to contest, I would have won hands down. It was sure victory for me.

Now let me explain in details. Because of my nature of social service to the people of my village and to those from other surrounding villages and from far off places, I was requested by my supporters, well-wishers and the people to contest the elections and represent them in the Assembly. My performance as the Sarpanch of Nuvem was very much appreciated which endeared them to me and they had high hopes that I would do something for the betterment of my people and for Goa and Goans. At that time, I was the President of the Youth Wing of the Congress Party. I put the proposal to the Congress High Command making a request that the people’s wishes should be fulfilled by giving me the party ticket. However, the seasoned politicians from the Congress camp worked against me and denied me the party ticket. I resigned and decided to contest on my own as an independent candidate. And I did.

But what went wrong against you?

Yes, many factors. I was too innocent and a novice in politics who did not believe in forming groups to perform goondagiri and dadagiri.

My principle in life is to be straight, fight face to face and avoid spoiling the youth and voters with money. I did not use money power. I approached every house on foot and there was huge support gathered much before the nomination forms were filled. I was received with open arms by the people.

Aleixo Sequeira was too nervous especially seeing my birthday reception held infront of the Nuvem Church and which was attended by over 8000 people. My popularity was soaring day by day.

In the meantime, Churchill was passing through troubled times and formed his own party called Save Goa which later Shaved Goa. He offered me the ticket but which I refused since the amount he demanded was beyond my reach.

UGDP offered me the ticket too, again I declined the offer because I consider UGDP ticket to Indian Railway Ticket as it is sold seasonally to the highest bidder. UGDP is one party run by a single family for profit. In the mean time, Remy Fernandes was planted by Aleixo to split votes on Shave Goa ticket. So, it was a triangular fight.

There were no politicians or bigwigs with me for canvassing like the other two candidates, there was no money distributed and I did not have goons with me. Despite that, my victory was assured, there was not an iota of doubt. But I lost by over a thousand votes.

So finally, how were you defeated?

Now listen carefully. The whole tide was in my favour, Churchill and Aleixo were nervous as they had no ground to stand except in some parts of Loutolim. I was checkmated by this combination.

A day before the voting, at around sunset, there were loads and tonnes of firecrackers burnt at every nook and corner of the constituency. People were curious to know the occasion. There were the chamchas of Aleixo Sequiera propagating the message from their crumb master that I had withdrawn in favour of Aleixo Sequiera and had taken a huge sum of money from him. This was a total lie. This false propaganda spread like wild fire in the village and the constituency. This false propaganda proved to be my nemesis. There was no time for us to approach the people to tell them that this was a trick, it was a big lie. On one side, there was the election code of conduct, and on the other side, I did not have gangs and loads of people to send to each and every house to convey the message. There was ban on loud speakers.

My supporters and I did what we could. We lodged police complaints against the miscreants; the police machinery was dancing to the tunes of Aleixo. That was a total setback at the last moment.

As Aleixo is a dirty hearted man, he stooped so low that he proved he could do anything to stay in power. When elections come, he wakes up and starts showing his scalper to the people swearing on it.

So, whom are you expecting to face this time, Aleixo and Mickey?

No, it will be the other way around this time. They will have to face me but they may not. Both have lost their faces. One is a crook and the other is immoral. Aleixo is already having sleepless nights this time because he knows that I am ought to defeat him at any cost. His tricks won’t work this time. He is not wanted anywhere in his own constituency and he has proved to be the destroyer of the villages and youth to fill his own pockets. He wants to create another 20 Point programme in our village. Our youths have chased him away. We do not want another disaster in our village.

Mickey, Oh No! We do not want an immoral pervert to spoil our village. Ultimately, if he is aiming his gun this side, there is no chance as NCP will not provide him with a ticket in Benaulim as well as in Nuvem. Therefore, at the last moment, he may jump on to the UGDP ticket to contest from this side. He will not contest from Benaulim because he knows that there is no support for him there. In any case, he knows that the people of Goa and especially Niz Goenkars won’t vote for him. They will vote for morally upright and not immoral persons and rouges.

What is your plan if you win from your constituency?

First of all, I want to continue doing what I do best. Charity, helping people in every way. Becoming an MLA won’t change me or my life style. I want to contest as a NIZ GOENKAR with the blessing of Menino de Valpoi, the founders and all our members. I want all Niz Goenkars to get together and create an alternative force to root out the corrupt Congress and communal BJP. We want to finish off the ticket stations like UGDP. We want only Niz Goenkars to move forward and weed out corruption.

I want to contest even as an independent but on Niz Goenkar platform.

My priority will be to provide employment to our youth. I want to make sure that the road alignment through Nuvem is stopped and diverted through the hilly areas where there won’t be damage to people’s property and houses. I intend to contest only for one term and may not be able to do much but will leave a landmark created by Pausilip Dourado.

What is your message to Niz Goenkars?

My message is that I proved in the last elections that one does not need money power and muscles to win elections. I lost by a small margin, polling all but 150 votes from my own village. I also attribute my past failures to not having a good PRO and my last moment overconfidence as I was whole-heartedly supported by the people. Aleixo was able to fool the people at the last moment by playing tricks but he won’t succeed every time. I am a Niz Goenkar, the victory is ours, of every Niz Goenkar to save Goa of what is left after being looted by the present rulers.

My motto and that of all Niz Goenkars is “Be sincere to yourself, you will win, you will prosper.”
