In this present COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of migrants currently in Goa have now sought to return to their respective native States. But shockingly while scrutinizing the applications and documents of these so called migrants, the Revenue authorities have shockingly unraveled that the identity documents of most of these migrants like Election card, Aadhar Card and the rest have all been issued in our State of Goa.
All this necessitates that the government authorities would have to get to the bottom of this rot as to how these migrants managed to get themselves officially enlisted in Goa while still holding on to their electoral and other rights in their respective States.
The Ministers, MLAs and Panchayat representatives besides the Revenue officials who colluded to facilitate all these gross and blatant illegalities to create a Vote Bank must be brought to book and punished. Is this the Goem, Goenkar and Goenkarponn that this Government had so loudly promised?
It seems ironic that born and bred Goans are made to go through hell sometimes to obtain some of those documents. But migrants are handed these documents shortly after arriving in the State as an investment to boost or prop up the vote banks of corrupt politicians. The global COVID-19 Pandemic has yet again clearly brought this long held corrupt practice and injustice to the fore. Enough is enough. It is time that the guilty were brought to heel and Justice be seen to be done.
