Protest against corruption, not just petty issues

Supporters of a few non-Goan right wing organizations at the behest of some political parties of late are seen trying to disturb the communal harmony by mischievously spreading the communal virus and somehow trying to help these same parties in the upcoming assembly elections. 

After raising slogans against Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee to provoke her during her recent visit, these same individuals were again seen holding a similar type of drama near Lohia Maidan, Margao and demanding the police to take action against an organization from Malbhat for allegedly raising pro-Pakistan slogans soon after the India V/s Pakistan cricket match recently.

Looks like some individuals of late are  getting more upset in Goa when they see people putting up banners during their own religious festivals or supporting/celebrating the win of any cricket team of their free choice and not when they see politicians cheating/ looting/keeping their own people backward/hungry in this country.  

When our country is currently being faced with so many other important issues like rising fuel prices, rising inflation, falling economy, rising unemployement etc, why these self-styled "patriots" are never seen taking out such morchas/protests and raising slogans against all the corrupt politicians of Goa or India?

If they really want to display their loyalty for this nation then learn to raise your voice against the corrupt political system of this country.
