After bragging that Goa legally had a rock solid case on the very crucial Mhadei issue, the State government had to swallow humble pie after the Supreme Court declined to grant Goa any interim relief. The BJP’s devious politrik was out in the open after the Union Home Minister Amit Shah publicly stated that the Mhadei imbroglio was resolved in consultation with the Goa Government which is something the Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to date has been silent on. In this political chicanery, for the BJP its party’s interests in Karnataka has overridden Goa’s welfare. It is absolutely shameful to witness the manner in which the Central Government has in an utterly devious manner betrayed the people of Goa. There is a dire need to ensure that every precious drop of water is saved for the wellbeing of Goans as posterity would not forgive us if we don’t fight this so vital Mhadei battle. Our Goa is on its way to being parched and will be reduced to a desert on account of the government’s sheer treachery on the issue.
