Facing huge public opposition to the proposal of setting up a nuclear power plant in Goa, the current Chief Minister Pramod Sawant immediately issued a clarification, that the BJP Goa government will not allow a nuclear plant in Goa. However, going by the past credentials of the BJP, the ex-BJP CM’s particularly late Manohar Parrikar clearly opposed double tracking for coal but the current Goa CM Sawant is aggressively pursuing double tracking (for coal) even bypassing legal frameworks/procedures. So many Goans inclining senior citizens and their homes are severely affected by the betrayal of the BJP government to facilitate specific crony capitalists. The BJP earlier had even opposed casinos but now the stench of corruption, environmental destruction, pollution of Goa by land, water based casinos is there for all to see! So can we be sure that the U-turn specialist BJP party will not do the same and proceed aggressively on the nuclear lower plant in Goa in the near future?
