PANJIM: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said Goa has become a classic case of ‘the fence eating the crop’ with an untrustworthy and incapable government doing nothing positive for Goa but instead only groping in the dark in search of ‘the next kill’. 

AAP Convener Elvis Gomes, while commenting on the year gone by, said that the year started with the government sowing it’s every act in darkness; which began with the unholy act of poaching MLAs from other parties by opening assembly doors in the middle of the night, and even swearing in ministries in pitch darkness to hide its misdeeds. 

He said that the year now ends with result of the ‘misdeeds’ that were done in darkness, which has now become visible through a show of ‘culture of death’ at the Sunburn EDM festival. 

 “The State is now infamous for beckoning three unsuspecting youth and killing them for money. This is the tourism that Goa is now known for.” said Gomes, while reacting to the recent death cases.

Gomes also challenged the State government to come clear on its financial bankruptcy and show how successfully the tax payers’ money was utilised in the last one year. 

“Everything this government has handled has been a failure. Mining, Tourism and GST handling has crippled the economy. Mhadei our life line could not be protected. Private collection that goes into pockets of a few is more than the revenue collection that goes into exchequer. Cheating and fraud is everywhere,” he added further.
