It is with deep regret I read in the local daily that Mr. Prabakhar Timble the founder president of Goa Forward has also resigned from the membership of the party as a mark of protest against party MLAs' decision to join BJP when earlier they expressed openly that they will never. This was the grand betrayal by the suddenly turned traitor Vijay Sardesai who has betrayed the trust of its supporters. It was never expected from Vijay who made mockery of the trust people had in him. He is such a Traitor and un-Goan in character that I pray to God never in future among Goan women to create a womb that will give birth to such an evil Traitor who does not care for the integrity of his supporters. He is such an irresponsible un-Goan man that he never thought of the truthfulness, dignity and integrity of all the innumerable supporters who voted for GFP . Oh! What an irresponsible man he is!
Through this betrayal Vijay Sardesai and his other two Judases who were till recently unknown entity but became cowardly some body have totally failed to protect the upright image of their voters. These are the traitors who are immune to the feelings of their voters who are become totally dejected by the betrayal of their representatives. Don’t these traitors have parents, wives and children to correct them? Or they too belong to the same ideology of “Kam zalem voiz melo ?” Their going to their Temples for performing religious rites is an act of insult to their religion because no religion teaches to be traitors. This defection resembled the first defection in Goa in late sixties when 5 UGP MLA’s defected to Bandodcar’s MGP. Incidentally, within a short period all of them were disgraced including my neighbor Valent Sequeira who died as unsung hero.
At least there is one politician in Goa who showed courage and wisdom to declare his sincerity towards his Party’s principle and also his high grade integrity. This is Mr. Prabakar Timble whom I applaud for dissociating from his party which is manned by corrupt and traitors and also shameless. Dr. Renuka agreeing to replace Mr. Timble without opposing Vijay and his colleagues for joining BJP is an act of juvenile girl. I don’t know how my other friends in GFP like Prashant who was so vocal like Vijay against BJP has succumbed to the Lollipops offered to them. After all, personal benefits outpace party’s principles. This is the tragedy of our Democracy which was imposed on us by Bharat Serkar in the name of forced liberation on 19thDecember 1961. This liberation is good only for the corrupt and the Bastartised Goans who are so selfish that they are ready even to dole their wives and daughters to those who are giving them power and money.
