Every Indian citizen should have the freedom to keep their ruling politicians in check including criticizing and protesting, but it appears that Indian and particularly Goan corrupt politicians, have an an intimidation policy in place, which not only restricts or prevent people from exercising their democratic rights, but also manipulating votes to favour the corrupt MLAs ministers via jobs, postal votes, mass political meetings etc. Even for official requirements, meetings, govt work etc many people whose salaries are paid by the government, are forced to do so extra/stressful and many times unnecessary government work. We need to address this government policy of slavery, subjugation and intimidation of people working for government or government aided entities.
