This Valentine’s Day is the luckiest one ever for some. It means that you don't have to be in any obligation with your constituency’s Santa as that sponsored laced envelope is your 5-year dividend interest with you being the exchequer or the taxes you had paid for healthy services and the principal amount still remains close to Santa's heart as it does not matter if you vote for him or the candidate of your choice.
Election politics is often an confusing area for most of us, but it is our duty to figure out where we stand on issues like alleviating poverty, employment, education, basic amenities, environmental protection, agriculture and urban development. Despite suffering poor governance for decades, we don't realise that voting means standing up for yourself, your future and for Goa on the whole. If you don’t vote or don't vote for your own interests, than who will? We must vote for a clean candidate to represent us, our ideas, and our interests as the elected legislators are accountable to seek our mandate and not fill their own pockets with overwhelming wealth as they have done so far. The clock is ticking and so is our pulse, not to see our mother Goa deteriorating further at the cost of some disgraced wolves in sheep's clothing.
