AAP Meeting at Azad Maidan, Panaji Goa 29.3.14, Vasco 8.4.14

AAM AADMI PARTY  (AAP) Meeting at Azad Maidan, Panaji Goa
on 29th March 2014. 6pm

There were no press advertisements, no hired buses, no free transport, no free money,
no Liquor, No Food or biryani etc
Yet there were around 1,000 people. Sort of historic turnout for any political rallies so far at Azad Maidan.

More and more people were joining in after 6.30pm, sadly, I could capture that as my camera goes blind after 6.30 or at sunset. The meet got over around 8.20pm with the singing of National anthem.

Another interesting part was almost all had AAP topi or cap on  their heads, sort of fearless support

It is possible that many did not turn up due to fear of intimidation.

What's going on in Velsao Parish Church?

What's going on in Velsao Parish Church?

The Parish priest sent on long leave?

'It's a conspiracy hatched by a handful of PPC members' says a speaker

'The Church or the Bishop house listen through his one ear only' says the other.

'The church hierarchy should have  listen to the voice of majority rather than cover-up and listen to a handful of bold and the beautiful collaborators of Criminal Conspiracy'

'We want our Parish Priest back' say all in one voice


 

Silent March or peaceful procession headed to Cansaulim Church to handover the resolution to the Dean who is the Parish Priest of Cansaulim. Another copy to be handed over to Bishop house tomorrow.

Parishioners want the priest back before the start of the lent i.e. before 5/3/14 
 

 Talking about Bishop, Fr. John D'Silva, Fr. Jason, Fr. Oliver, Fr. Sartorio, Sr. Suzie, Sr. Jaya etc

Rally success, at what cost?
Chaos on the road.
Passengers and Rally attendees had to walk for upto 2 KMs by abandoning their buses due to traffic jam. Pax on city routes waited for hours as most buses hired by the Rally organizers. Big Q at Shuutle buses counter and than held up in the traffic jam. Saw people walking from upto Bambolim slope to Panjim.
Goa Traffic Police cannot even manage 2000 odd people at Kala Acadamy Festivals etc how could they handle 2lakhs?
video coming soonr should know this than anbybody and should outsource the traffic cops from neighbouring states. btw, what was the neet for organising this rally? Publicity stunt? All they wanted to make this historic or record breaking rally so that it give wider publicity by national TV channels etc. Ok, they achieved their goal but at what cost?http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk73/11914249675/in/photostream
