Citizens need to give rolling shield to smoothest operator

Congress stopped the bus of an ISL team to press for local contracts. Reports say ‘some local buses will be used’!  What is the bottom line? How did they decide to negotiate on behalf of Goans?  The reason why the old guards are retained is because they are all smooth operators!

AAP is working on ‘minor’ hiccups. Why are they not disclosing the ISL losses to Goa? They are not seeking more power to the Lokayukta. They are not cornering the Govt. for rejecting the Lokayukta’s findings! They prefer to be the side shows in the theatre of life? Citizens need to give an annual rolling shield to the ‘Smoothest Operator’!
