In light of recent events in Daman & Diu, people are wondering what they have got in last 30 years after delinking from Goa.
Few achievements (?) in last 30 years:
Roads were pride of Daman. Now roads are like some BEMARU states, becoming worst by day in day out.
Some years ago one of the main road connecting Daman to Gujarat was made of RCC which was claimed to last atleast 20 years. It started deteriorating in less than 6 months and it was necessary to patch it with tar to be able to use it.
Some 25 years ago Water supply scheme was inaugurated with aim to make water availability for 24 hours a day. In 2012 work for new water supply scheme has started with the same aim at the cost of crores of rupees.
Electricity Department operate with 8 percentage of line loss, even though they do not own transmission lines.
Daman & Diu were working efficiently with one IAS officer, now there are altest 20 officers of rank of IAS, IPS, IFS, DANICS, DANIPS and people are eagerly waiting to get their files approved and nothing comes out except some noting to clarify something or other without any decision for years.
Daman & Diu were cleanest in whole country but now Daman is among dirtiest.
Corruption was almost nil but now nothing moves without greasing hands.
There is administration in place which does not listen to its citizens and operates on its own hidden agenda.
Overall, feeling of frustration has griped citizens of Daman & Diu after 30 years of delinking from Goa.
