Chief minister not a trustworthy politician

Chief Minister Pramod Sawant has reportedly said (obviously at the behest of his Sangh Parivar bosses and keeping an eye on the upcoming assembly elections) that the temples destroyed by the Portuguese need to be rebuilt and has also appealed to people to support him to take up the task to reinstate Hindu temples and 'Hindu Sanskruti' in Goa. In other words, Sawant wants all his die hard saffron supporters to start wasting their time by coming up with their own fictitious past stories (just like their counterparts from states like UP).

Well, I personally feel that a politician like Pramod Sawant who openly displays his leanings towards a fascist organisation like the RSS so frequently should not be trusted or taken lightly anymore but should be outrightly rejected by leaders of all political parties as he is dangerous for the existence of our peace-loving state and our "Goenkarponn" in Goa. Yes, those who are dreaming of dividing Goans on religious lines and heading us backward to the primitive dark ages by refusing to live in the present world should just not be allowed to rule Goa in the near future.
