To
The Editor
Thank you to all those who had voted in favour of
retaining Goa for the Goans.16th Jan 1967, was the day when people of all walks
of life came out and voted for the Goa that we as the new generation has
inherited from our elders. Thanks to the father of Opinion Poll Late Dr. Jack
De Sequeira who although being in the
opposition had the courage to stop something of this magnitude successfully and
keep our little Goa to his fellow Goa's future generations. Nowadays it is
considered not worthy to seat in the opposition and fight for people centric
issues but rather side with the ruling in the name of development of the
constituency and their own self. They forget that they are elected by the
people for a purpose and when they win they forget about their agenda and the
long speeches they gave during elections . They only see the green grass in the
ruling party's lawn. Coming back to the legend Dr. Jack Sequira He was a true
son of the soil. He did not try to flourish his political future but the future
of Goan generations to come. Goa forwards was one party who people had put
their faith in to protect Goa but the day they joined the NDA they have
become the slaves of the Delhi Masters and will remain loyal to them for the
years to come. The legacy of Dr. Jack Sequira cannot be hijacked by any
politician of today by just putting up picture of himself with the legend. The politician's
actions will judge the real Goenkar in him by standing shoulder to shoulder
with the laymen on the street trying to draw the attention of the lawmakers how
our rivers our land and our self employment of the natives are at stake due to
a few political decisions of the govt. in coercing with the central govt. Congratulations
to the lay people led by Mrs Rosy Marie who has shown the way that all selfless
true Goans will always fight to protect Goa from being put out on sale in the
name of Development just like Dr. Jack Sequira whom we salute him on this day
for keeping Goa to us.
