Apropos to “Goa to vote on Valentine’s Day” The Goan Everyday, January 9, 2022).
Goa’s destiny is in the hands of people of Goa when Goa votes on February 14, 2022 -- thirty five days from now.
Excitement for this crucial Goa Assembly Elections 2022 is palpable in the air. The incumbent Goa BJP is confident of returning to power with a thumping majority.
At the same time, the voters of Goa remember the betrayal and hijacking of their mandate back in 2017.
Subsequent flip flops of the elected representatives are too fresh in the collective memory of Goa’s battered psyche to forget.
Come February 14 and the polling booths across Goa will witness long serpentine queues to teach befitting lessons to all those too-clever-by-half netas ready to pull a fast one even this time around.
Democracy gives us an option to take revenge through ballots. It is now or never.
March 10, 2022 will go down in history as an important day when democracy survives and emerges as an undisputed winner to take Goa on the path of Unity, Equality and Communal Harmony to lead the way for the rest of the country in these troubled times that pose danger to the idea of India.
