Chief Minister Pramod Sawant while responding to concerns raised by Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao on Monday casually assured the Goa Legislative Assembly that incidents similar to the controversial arrest of nuns in Chhattisgarh will not take place in the state as his government never allows religious discrimination or baseless targeting of individuals or groups but respects all communities and ensures their protection under the Uniform Civil Code. Now, if what Sawant has said on the floor of the house on Monday is 100% true then how come his government is seen inwardly fully backing/supporting the anti-social activities of goons of all the non-Goan right wing organisations in the state? How come his government is seen giving them a free hand today to stop vehicles at the border to harass those transporting beef to deprive minorities of beef? How come his government is seen giving full protection to a habitual hate monger like Subhash Velingkar? Well, Alemao should have roasted CM Sawant on the floor of the house and exposed his real face in the assembly. Because by now most Goans know which type of people Sawant goes to support for his own long-term political survival.
