Sir,

 

Kudos to the people of St Andre for standing firm with their demand against section 39A of the Goa TCP Act. St Andre MLA Viresh Borkar is the true hero of this movement which really had the honorable CM come to the meet the MLA showing concern for his health. A siting MLA going on a hunger strike for the sake of its people and constituency is one of first in Goa’s history or may even be nationally. The fleet achieved by the young energetic young man will go down in Goa’s history very much acknowledged by the future generation as a battle fought for the sake of protecting Goa and its environment. MLA Viresh as a first time MLA has been ridiculed in the house by senior MLAs of the Ruling dispensation but He has always proved his ability to put fought his points in the assembly. We need more of our youngsters to follow his steps be of any party be Goenkar first. The support by the opposition MLAs, Activists, intellectuals and People from all walks of life proved very helpful. The battle is far from over supporters of all party and followers of politicians has to ponder the thought of what kind of Goa are we passing on to our future generations, Goa with no mountains, polluted rivers, concretized villages, unaffordable dwellings, slavery of the rich and mighty second home owners? May this small revolution grow in every village that needs protection from the land sharks colluding with greedy politicians who care a little for Goa but only see Goan land as a wealth creating tool.
