MANOHAR PARRIKAR'S DOUBLE TALK ON CASINOS
By Aires Rodrigues
Addressing the Goa Legislative Assembly on 7th August 2012 the then Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar had categorically and confidently stated that he did not need the revenue from Casinos for Goa's developmental works.
While branding the government revenue from Casinos as "bad" money, Manohar Parrikar had declared that the income from Casinos would be kept in a separate account and utilized only on homes for the aged and those suffering from Alzheimer's, etc.
Manohar Parrikar had further firmly stated "We don't want to use that money to buy computers for students. We don't need that money in the budget"
Earlier, while in the Opposition Manohar Parrikar had branded Casinos as a "social evil" and called them "dens of vice". While leading that agitation against Casinos Manohar Parrikar had vowed to make sure that casinos were thrown out of Goa, while assuring that the BJP campaign would not only cover off-shore casinos, but also those in 5-star hotels too.
But after coming to power the BJP has fallen in passionate love with the Casino brigade which is now getting the government's abundant patronage and support. While the BJP is feasting and making merry with the abundant moolah flowing from the Casinos, Goa has sadly become the country's gambling hub with the allied vices of prostitution and the narcotics trade also flourishing by the day.
Sarabjit ji please accept our accolade for this clear position this portal has stated for itself in this political milieu.
Makes creditable read.Specially keeping in mind the del election

They are both USA Ford Foundation Magsaysay Award h****is and whatever weird games they play-enact is their private affair, so long as they don't use IAC name / logos and keep all their Twitter-Facebook retards under control.SarbajitOn Fri, Jan 16, 2015 at 1:51 PM, sangeeth rao <dsangeetharao@gmail.com> wrote:D.SangeethaRaoRegards,Dear friends,AAP Arvind Kejriwal defeated in the general election 2014 I wrote a letter that take moral responsibilities and step down and appoint Mrs.Medhapatkar as President of AAP and you take any other post also mentioned in that letter now congress in ICU develop the paty all over country so many people join as members.
