PANJIM: The Congress on Wednesday charged that the insensitive and directionless BJP government was trying to survive by hiking fines and penalties and pushing the State into bankruptcy.
“We will not allow government to implement amended Motor Vehicles Act with steep hike in fines and penalties till proper, safe and secured roads and infrastructure is put in place,” Chodankar said.
GPCC president Girish Chodankar said that it is loud and clear that the BJP government imposed restrictions on the movement and participation of Goans in their traditional festivals like Shigmotsav, Easter celebrations, Shab-ye-Barat and proved that BJP is anti-Bahujan Samaj and anti-minority.
Chodankar demanded that Chief Minister Pramod Sawant needs to explain to the people on the rationale behind imposition of Section 144 CrPC in the State when COVID-19 cases were minimum and subsequent withdrawal of the same when almost all hospitals and COVID care centres are full with rising coronavirus cases.
