Why blame the environment messiah?
The poor people who had lost a living during 2012’s mines’ closure by Manohar Parrikar to check mate the then Central Congress Govt. (Jayanty Natrajan to be precise) took more loans and mortgaged whatever gold they had to get their vehicles and machinery on road when the government abruptly started a few mines due to pressure from the dependents. The honorable Supreme Court’s ruling against these illegally started mines were a blow to all the Goan dependents on the mining business. The big miners of the nation who are friends of the Central Govt. have seen this opportunity of getting the Goan mines on auction and the local govt is under pressure from the Central govt.
In all this turmoil the local population in the mining belt have been affected very badly. Since the minerals have been extracted for the last 50 years or more the depleted state of our mines will not make the dependents live forever on the mining business and hence it's the duty of the govt to provide a alternative to this business side by side and hence extend the period of exhausting of Goan minerals so that the future generations too benefited by this ancestral wealth of Goa. That's exactly what Claude Alvares has been fighting for. The Goan Minister blaming Claude for the mess is totally uncalled for. He is nobody to instigate the already suffering people and tell them that Claude be sent out of Goa. He as a part of the govt. should apologise for the mess created by his govt since 2012. Claude Alvares is a true son of the soil and his integrity and loyalty to Goa cannot be questioned by these greedy selfish politicians.
