While giving jobs is good, I hope the selection process for these tax officers was completely transparent and merit-based. We need the most capable people in these roles, especially for revenue collection.
Interesting to see Goa's CM sharing waste management practices with Kerala councillors. Goa is a tourist state, so they must have good experience handling urban waste. Hope other states learn from each other like this.
The outreach to Kerala is significant. For BJP to make inroads there shows their national message is resonating. "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas" isn't just a slogan if they are winning in new areas. Kerala's political landscape is changing.
As someone who visits Goa often, I've noticed improvements in cleanliness over the years. If their municipal governance model is being shared, that's a positive step for urban development across India.
The article feels a bit like a political report. I wish there was more detail on the actual tax officer roles and what the freedom fighters' children will do. The focus seems more on the Kerala meeting.
