Congratulations Mr. Manohar Parrikar / Bhai / Our Dynamic Chief Minister - for winning the hearts of Goans again with extreme majority, ......laga laga laga re Congress ko Jor ka Jhatka Dhire se laga....We are now again waiting for the development & reduction in Unemployment. Priority is - VAT Tax; based on which the sixth pay is paid to the government employees. and how far this structure is working in Goa. Also about the contract workers. and implementation of new business policies.
The new government should have professional Tax to the saleried employees as it is the case with Maharashtra Government. All the employees who come under the tax bracet will have to pay the tax to the income tax office under government of india. The professional tax will go to the state Government. Why not give it a try.
The challenges before the new Government are many. How to stop the mining loot, how to stop drug peddling, how to reduce corruption at every step, how to raise resources, how to restore the law and order, how to stop breaking of temples and churches, how to carry all sections of the society, how to recover the loot of public wealth done in last few years, how to set free the media from the clutches of the vested interests, how to bring about developmental activities, how to keep the team together for next 5 years, how to improve the falling standards in education, how to reduce debt burden on the next generation, how to stop flow of thousands of crores of revenue from Goa to Centre, how to demand more funds from Centre, how to develop the infrastructure like roads, power supply, water supply, how to generate more jobs , how to bring green industries, how to control mining menace......etc...
