Save ‘Music’, ban “Noise”
Sunday, 14 August 2011 13:44
My college professor once told me that in the beginning the entire world was a ‘chaos’ of solid matter, water, gases and chemicals. Then God played music and brought order out of this ‘chaos’ making it a world full of ‘measures & systems ‘. Music made the world a better place to live in.
Music is certainly a wonderful thing. It is one of God’s best creations. Could there be anyone in this world that does not like music? No and there never will be. Still however, in recent times, there are quite a few people who have started looking at music through dark glasses.
Bury the hatchet… B.B.S.M.

Every day I open the newspapers and there is a report covering a meeting organized by the B.B.S.M. and what do I read? It’s venom and venom spat out by these frustrated bunch of pseudo leaders in the B.B.S.M. against Goan parents and against the Diocesan Society Education.

Fatorda: An OBC Loyalist Constituency
Going by the past history of the Assembly Constituency of Fatorda for the last 25 years has always elected candidates from among the OBC community. Not that the voters of Fatorda are casteist or communal but it is just that they trust their own. That’s all!
Many a times in the past, upper-class candidates have been forced on the voters of Fatorda but each time the people of Fatorda have shown them the door. I do not remember any exception to this pattern but if ever there was one it could have been just “a flash in the pan”.
Medium of Instruction: “Amkam pixyant kaddttat kai ?”
Monday, 16 May 2011 15:38
Goa is the only place where :-
“Issues” are made out of “Non- Issues”. Medium of Instruction in Primary Schools is not at all an “Issue”. Give “Grants” to all. Let all benefit …… that’s the simplest solution.
While everyone is hoping for a decision by the government of Goa , in favor of English as the Medium of Instruction for Primary Education by the 20th of May 2011 , there are others like me who are very skeptical of the Government’s response. The reason for my being skeptical is based on the fact that I have been doing a behavioral study on this Government for quite some time now. I have not only studied the behavioral pattern of this Government as a whole but also a behavioral pattern of most of the individual Ministers and M.L.A s of Goa.
