As a GRA [Goemchea Rakhondarancho AWAZ] member, I did read Soter's tirade with great interest. Actually, the questions he poses are of very much relevance to Goa's SURVIVAL in this jungle of political cannibalism.
Though I have my ears to the ground, I have not a clue that a parallel organization such as GRE [Goemchea Rakhondarancho Ekvott] has come a floating to compete with GRA, and I am quite surprised. If what Soter says is true, then it must be understood that GRA is, in fact, looked at with worried wrinkles on the (thikka - aka red smeared - aka saffron robed) foreheads and therefore this parallel competition.
Only time will tell which one will lead NIZ GOENKARS to their PROMISED
LAND.
BTW: It was [my] GRA that had a 'supposed' to be, but not quite, 'massive' rally at the Lohia Maidan yesterday the 29th. April, 2011 where what is actually happening as far as governance is concerned in the hinterland such as Rivona, Cavrem, Nerul, etc. etc. etc. was threadbare exposed. If Soter thinks that it was [their] GRE that was in action yesterday in the South, then he needs to get his facts right.

PS: For Soter's information:
GRA's stand on the MOI:
The Medium of Instructions at the PRIMARY LEVEL must be in the language that 90% of Goa's Children speak and understand from birth. If this is Konkani, then it must be Konkani. If it is Telegu, Kannada, Bengali, Urdu or Marathi, then so be it. The English language must also be taught as a SUBJECT from I to IV in the manner of perfection so that these children exit the Primary level and enter the Secondary level in smoothest possible transition.
GRA's Stand on Mining:
Mineral Resources of Goa are a gift of God to Goa and Goans. If it's exploitation does not benefit Goa and Goans, let it lie buried and untouched whether the Goa Government or for that matter the Central Government LIKES IT OR NOT.

It only happens in Goa if a genuine organization is born with good intentions to fight evil, another new organization springs out of thin air claiming to carryout the same fight. Who are the sponsors for the other new organization? The sponsors will be none other than the evil characters to confuse innocent Goans minds, Thus making Goans least interested in any organizations.
ReplyDeleteI believe GRA is a new broom that could sweep well. It cannot do on its own without the support of like minded Goans.
