Friends, Goa's soul is in danger. TCP Minister Vishwajit Rane says if casinos are removed from Panaji, the city will become desolate, barren like Mormugao.
What message is this? That Goa now breathes only through gambling ships?
Direct questions to the Minister:
1. By citing Mormugao, are you threatening that we must accept pollution and ruin just to save the casinos?
2. Is Goa's economy really dependent only on tourists' gambling, and not on the land and culture of local Goans?
3. Freedom fighters remind us that independence was not won to allow injustice. Then why is saving casinos more important than stopping land grabs?
4. Without casinos Panaji will become a ghost town. Is this the truth, or a warning to silence those who protest?
Akhil Bharatiya Janashakti Party stands with Viresh Borkar. Scrap Section 39A. Stop land looting. Goa's real vibrancy is not in casinos. It lies in our villages, rivers and freedom.
Answer, Minister. The people of Goa will decide.
