Hundreds of Goans from different parts of the State reportedly held a peaceful rally on Sunday against the proposed draft jetty policy (a controversial policy which most Goans claim is a backdoor entry to usurp Goa's waters and adjoining land for corporations to make short-term profits by destroying the State's fragile ecosystem) and which finally culminated at Azad Maidan in the city where copies of the said 'jetty policy' were symbolically burnt.
I think that if we Goans have reached to such a state of no return then it is solely due to our own indifferent attitude as we keep electing the same old most corrupt business-minded politicians for years by forever staying divided on caste/religious lines despite of knowing their past track records.
And the worse part is that we Goans habitually love to live a most self-centered cum selfish life, fully isolated or cut-of from the outside world and with a "mhaka kiteak podlam" attitude. Yes, it is this attitude of ours that the politicians have taken advantage of and due to which we are seeing them daringly bulldozing through some of the most unwanted destructive projects/policies just for the sake of filling their own personal bank accounts and destroying Goa right in front of our very eyes in the state.
