As per the available information, Michael Lobo (MLA) during his speech at Sinquerim on 16thof this month, for the inauguration of children Park, said that he will work to appoint an enquiry commission to investigate the disproportionate asset accumulated by some politicians and strongly reprimanded some elected Panchayat members who behave like Maharajas and Hitlers in Calangute. Some of these politicians are even known to give ill-treatment to the locals when they come to the Panchayat office for any official work, said Mr. Lobo. Michael Lobo with his humble background is, inspite of reaching to such a high level, still the same having not lost his originality. His simplicity and accessibility even to his opponents has helped him to win the second term.
It is my request to Mr. Lobo to apply this enquiry commission jurisdiction also to other villages including mine too where Ladr-Pedru type of people are owning chain of Hotels and fleet of posh cars. We want to know from where they acquired the money to accumulate this fat asset. Till yesterday these people had no proper Cycle nor a decent house but by joining politics first at Panchayat level and later on at upper level they acquired illicit wealth beyond their imagination and this wealth makes them act like Maharajas and arrogant.
In my locality at least 2 “Ponch” Panch members are clearly indicating their wealthy assets by showing their hotel/restaurant and other things they acquired thru the illicit wealth they collected. They already got the taste of making money thru illicit means. For this reason one of them is desperately trying to get a slot for him to contest the election outside of his Ward because his ward is gone into reserved ward. The voters when they find such rogues contesting the election in your ward, please kick them out because they are outsiders in your ward. Do not vote an outsider because these people are like Ghattis who are interested only in their wellbeing.
Ths is the only opportunity for the pople to show their anger on these Panchas who are rogues and acting like Hitlers. Such Hitlers we must send to the Gas Chambers otherwise they will send us to the Gas Chambers if we allow them to win the coming election.
