Whenever one applies for a job what is seen is his pack track record. No one hires someone who promises the moon. Candidates with criminal records and ulterior motives think only about the next election and not the next generation. Effective traffic management, repeated digging of roads, no co-ordination between government departments, bright illuminated billboards along the road, which blind the rider at night, ever increasing population of street dogs, sound pollution, casino menance are some of the problems faced by residents of Panjim. For the smart city project, we need smart people to analyze and deliver smart solutions and not politicians with no accountability. Politicians do what they do best “ give freebies or cash before elections. Let us do what smart voters do best “ reject them. Choose someone who has some leadership qualities. As was said earlier during the 26/11 attacks, be more scared about who comes through your vote than someone who comes by boat.
