SPECIAL INTERVIEW | Brutal Government — People’s Movement Is the Only Way

Analysis of the ongoing agitation over Section 39A with Niraj Naik of Digital Goa, and veteran journalist Rajendra Desai

For the past four days, the top news has been the protest, led by MLA Viresh Borkar and the people of St Andre, against Section 39A of the TCP.


Vishwanath Nene (Chief Editor of The Voice), senior journalist Rajendra Desai, and Niraj Naik (Chief Editor of Digital Goa) analysed the situation, discussing how the agitation did not happen overnight but had been simmering for quite some time, and how it comes close on the heels of the success of the Chimbel agitation.


The Chief Minister’s reaction, the reasons for the protesters’ lack of faith in government promises, why scrapping government rules cannot always happen overnight, how the government functions in such cases, who else is connected with Section 39A apart from Vishwajit Rane, how this rule affects people, how the section can be used to bypass existing rules, whether any decorum is left in Goa, and the way forward, were among the topics which were part of the discussion
