MICHAEL LOBO.
As shown in one of the TV Channels and the same is seen today īn the mid-mornīng, Michael Lobo a high pitch BJP man till very recently and now turned into a Congressman started his campaign in Calangute in front of One Cross stating that we must send BJP back home because releasing his anger on BJP who he said was fully responsible for the ills afflicted to Goa and Goans. He further said that the blame for Mining disaster was the creation of BJP and now since such a long period all those who were affected miserably due to the stoppage of mining the BJP must own the blame. Unemployment that is existing in Goa is due the BJP fault, our youth who are made incapable due to lack of any facilities by the Government is the making of the BJP government, he said further.
In fact according to Michael Lobo all the disastrous happening in Goa for the Goans even side stepping locals and giving preferential treatment to outsiders is the policy of BJP. While BJP is blamed for evil that is happening in Goa what Michael Lobo was doing? Sitting idly and watching the tamasha? He said no body was listening to his voice. What a kiddy argument Lobo puts. If Ghandiji was alive now, he would tell the Chief Minsiter Sawant as Ghandiji advised soon after the independence of India to the then Congress President Acharya Kriplani to resign from the post that he occupies if Congress Party does not listen to his advice.
If Michael was real Michael Lobo he would take his resignation and fly on the face of CM Sawant and by coming out from the BJP circle he would tell the people how Hitlerian BJP are become and in the bargain he could earn public sympathy, Michael must stop shedding Crockodile tears when he was fully a party to every act of BJP either good or bad. How was it that he worked so hard to help the BJP form the government after the last election? There is saying in Konkani which says “Apun zanvcho khuim nitt ani dusreank marchem mitt.
How long this honey moon of Lobo with Congress will last? What guarantee is there that he will not re-join the BJP after getting elected for the greed of powerful portfolio?
During these days we see some Christian Candidates going to the Hindu Temples besides their own Churches to pray for their victories. Is it right for Christians to pray in the non-Christian Temples? As per Christian doctrine, they have to adore only one God that is as per the Bible.
