Political storm seems to be brewing in the state with five MLAs belonging to the Congress Party reportedly raising a banner of revolt. The political development happened on the eve of the monsoon session of the Goa Legislative Assembly which started on Monday. It is a sorry state of affairs that the principal opposition party was busy keeping its flock together instead of finalizing a strategy to question the government on a number of issues. Be that as it may, as the assembly session has now commenced all major issues affecting the citizens of the state need to be taken up. Due to the heavy rains there are several problems facing the common man. The flooding of several towns, villages, especially Panaji city is one of the major issues which calls for a debate during this session. Then there is the issue of landslides and the pathetic state of the roads which are full of potholes due to incessant rains. The government needs to come with a lasting solution to all the problems associated with the rains.
