A controversy has erupted after a statement made by Aam Aadmi Party Benaulim MLA Venzy Viegas whereby during an event in Colva last week, he lauded CM Pramod Sawant's development efforts in Benaulim comparing him with Goa's first Chief Minister Dayanand Bandodkar. Well, no CM can be compared with Bhausaheb Bandodkar because this former CM/ popular leader is still remembered for doing good things during his tenure and working tirelessly for the upliftment of Bahujan Samaj. His invaluable contribution of establishing free educational facilities even in the most remote villages must be remembered. Of course, our present CM, at the behest of his central bosses is also bringing in huge projects, constructing four-lane roads, fancy bridges and flyovers everywhere but he's doing all this not for the benefit of Goans but to bring in hordes of outsiders and to slowly build his own & his party colleagues vote banks in different parts of Goa. Benaulim MLA Venzy Viegas should therefore stop comparing the present CM with Bandodkar just to stay in good books with the present ruling dispensation.
