'Enough is Enough' movement will witness govt deceit

The “Enough is Enough” movement adopted a people’s 10-point charter to prevent further ecological and environmental degradation of the state. I appreciate retired Chief Justice of Allahabad high court along with his team making a representation to the Chief Minister of Goa and presenting this charter.  However as an observer of how this BJP government has been handling such types of opposition to the destruction of Goa; Goans must not expect this Goa BJP government to do anything on the issue. We have seen with the anti-coal movement, the activists also were invited by the CM Pramod Sawant to make a representation and genuine demands and we know now that the Goa government has actually done the exact opposite of the demands.  In Colva, we have found controversial illegal housing projects particularly by North Indians having direct backing from senior Goan ministers and I allege that money flows to these ministers. Goans should not be complacent with any false assurances from the Goa BJP government. The movement must be a continuous pressure movement until all the 10 points of the people’s charter are achieved.
