In thirties when Gandhiji was alive, the high caste Bihari Hindus burned alive so many Harijans. Ghandiji felt very bad seeing this gross injustice done to the poor Harijans. Within a short period of time, Bihar was flooded with heavy rain that killed a great number of the Biharis. Commenting on this, Ghandiji said that this was the devine punishment for hurting the innocent poor.
I do believe in devine punishment because I believe in God and where there is God there is bound to be justice. Based on this logic, I am now commenting on the local political scenario and the injustice some politicians are doing against others thereby inviting devine punishment.
During his last debate in his last Assembly session Wishnu Vagh acting like a wounded “Ranantlo Vagh”, scolded the Church and the Diocesan Schools Society and concluded saying that “we also will go ahead and build our own schools and then we will teach them a good lesson”. Within a few days, Wishnu Wagh was shifted to Mumbai hospital for treatment. It is a pity since then he never recovered to challenge the Church and Diocesan Schools Society. What wrong the Church has done to non-Catholics? Did the Diocesan Schools closed their door to the non-Catholic Children? Why such a hatred for Diocesan Schools? Why hurting the minority Catholic community and why such a animosity towards Christian?
In the last election, Congress Party got a clear majority needing it to form the government but with his brute power in an unethical manner Parricar changed the whole victory of Congress and by manipulating the result even by forcing the Governor to toe his line, Parricar formed the BJP Government thereby hurting the sentiments not only of the elected Congressmen but more than that of the electorate who voted for Congress Party. What an Himalayan injustice Parricar has done and for this reason I feel as devine punishment Parricar had to spend the last three months in American hospital in the Christian USA from where will he come back all right? It looks doubtful because he will have to pay for the injustice that he committed on to the Congress Party and those voters who got elected the Congress candidates. Devine punishment surely comes.
Pandurang Madkaicar is yet another victim of the devine punishment for the pride of the display of his wealth even to the extent of erecting his Bungalow at Old Goa thereby shadowing the religious monuments of Chrstianity. For this pride and arrogance there is only one punishment that is the devine punishment which Madkaicar is facing.
Francis D’Souza is helping the BJP to do wrong against minority in Goa by keeping silence for the every injustice done on Christian community when he should raise his voice against it. In this way he is supporting BJP to do injustice to Christians. He too is afflicted with bad sickness for this reason it is said that he is gone to Europe for treatment. He got no peace because he spoiled the peace of peaceful community. Hence what men cannot do God is doing by giving him devine punishment for indulging in dirty politics for his selfish benefit. It is a pity that by being a member of the minority community he is supporting the tirade against his own community. What a tragedy that this man has reached to such a low!
Vasco MLA and a supporter of BJP is also indulging in doing dirty politics in support of BJP to gain him personal benefits. While doing this dirty game he does not care for anything but for his selfish interest. He too is afflicted with sickness that keeps him constantly under tension and worried.
This means almost the entire BJP government is sick and since this being the case how can we move forward in giving good governance? There is nothing going ok in Goa and everybody is waiting for Parricar to return. Will he or not? It is a Hamletic question. Till such time Goa has to suffer because they treat Goa as their fathers’ property. They are not interested in the good of Goa and Goans. This BJP and its elected members it looks will not only devour the Goans physically but even soully.
It is not my wish to see them punished by God like this but what can I do to stop this devine punishment? God is omnipotent and He alone know that what He is doing is right. But I can still pray to God to forgive them because they are power hungry and burning with anger and revenge against Christians when Christians are not a belligerent community.
