Kulaste threatens nationwide stir over Balli
PTI, PANAJI | 01 June 2011 23:41 IST

A fact-finding committee of BJP has claimed that the recent violence in Balli village wherein two tribals were killed was engineered by a 'political mob' in connivance with the local police.
The state BJP leaders said the report of the committee would be sent to party president Nitin Gadkari to decide further course of action.
BJP's National Scheduled Tribe Cell president Faggan Singh Kulaste said that the party was planning to launch a nationwide stir demanding dismissal of Digambar Kamat-led government.
He said the government was 'inhuman' and 'insensitive' towards issues of tribals.
Charred bodies of tribal leaders Manguesh Gaonkar and Dilip Velip were recovered from a cashew factory on May 25 in Balli village.
"The entire incident indicates Goa government's lookout towards the tribals in the state," he said.
The fact-finding committee, which arrived in Goa on Monday, today visited Balli village and the factory where the incident took place.
The committee also met the kin of the deceased at their village.BJP's tribal leader and MP Ramsingh Rathva said that the party will also raise the issue in the Parliament.
"We are putting up real facts before the party leaders," he said adding that the issue has to be taken up nationwide considering the cruelty committed on the innocent tribals by the Congress-led government.
BJP's national general secretary, Bhupendra Yadav, said that the murders are needed to be probed by the special investigation team (SIT) under direct monitoring of high court.
Yadav alleged that the police were shielding the accused and not bothered to collect evidences from the spot.
Goa government has launched a judicial probe into the incident at the insistence of tribals who had rejected the magisterial enquiry on the earlier occasion.

HOH,HOH,HOH,Seems like last The BJP has seen a cloud with a silver linning for the next election very sad.Playing with peoples lives and their sentiments is The BJP's No.1 weapon however the people aren;t dumb. Only a handful of samples fall prey to the BJP's game and consequently get disoriented.
The balli incIdent was motivated by BJP and executed through UTTA. That's an old trick from the movies.
Mr. PARRIKAR. The death also of the two tribals was instigated by BJP Supporters by Burning the factory and to begin the name blame game.What did BJP and parrikar do for the tribes of goa when he was in power?
Now, was'nt the 12 point programe always on the list?Yes , and it takes time for such matters .why such a haste! where were these tribal leaders on daily basis sleeping? they should have been holding dharnas in goa and even proceed to delhi.This same BJP will be challenging the tribal demands Through supreme court opposing their demands using their third wing.... which is bjp in disguise.They have done it before and will be done a again,BJP has always been known to play games through religions and through sentiments of schedule caste tribes sentiments playing 'gods and emotions'.
In reality?BJP represents NARAD in Indian politics they are a very good opposition party they do their homework well, Sad though but never as a ruling party. since the've always had an impressive start and a totally disoriented ending.
Hence congress will always live .
Mr. PARRIKAR! .
However your party tries,'BJP IS STILL A PASTRY SHOP while CONGRESS ARE THE CONFECTIONEIRS', YOUR SHELF LIFE IS SHORT AND DISIGNED BY CONGRESS . YOU ARE BORN OUT OF THAT OUTFIT . THEY HAVE CREATED YOU'LL AND YOU'LL HAVE BEEN GIVEN OPPURTUNITIES TO PROVE YOURSELVES COUPLE OF TIMES which was like LIFE SUPPORT.
HOWEVER I regret to say' YOU'LL HAVE ALWAYS FAILED to impress THE NATION as of today.
Faggan singh? you just seem to be a monkey in the offing you know nothing ,and mr. parrikar what's wrong with you! you sound like in konkani WHAT we say which perfectly applies to you right now as 'Xinkonn Brutt' and for your information, when congress rules 'India Smiles when BJP rules India Cries.

No doubt , the Alemao`s will have had a dirty hand in this.
The problem with the Alemao`s is they believe they own Goa.
