With one exit and two additions, Goa cabinet sees a rejig
Environment Minister Aleixo Sequeira on Wednesday resigned from the Goa cabinet, citing personal reasons, paving the way for a cabinet reshuffle in the state. In a letter addressed to Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, Sequeira, who was also holding Law and Judiciary, Legislative Affairs and Captain of Ports portfolios, said he was 'compelled' to take the decision to resign from the Council of Ministers due to 'personal reasons'. Two new Ministers – Ramesh Tawadkar and former chief minister Digambar Kamat – will be inducted in the Sawant-led cabinet, and the swearing-in ceremony is scheduled to be held at the Raj Bhavan at noon on Thursday. At a press conference at the Secretariat, Sequeira said, 'I am not giving (the resignation) on health grounds because I believe I have improved drastically. I am resigning due to personal reasons. I think I will be relieved of a lot of responsibilities that I had taken on my shoulders. I have no issues with the party. I will continue to be a member of the BJP. I was toying with the idea (of resigning) for some time. I received whole-hearted support of the CM in my tenure.' Sequeira denied he was under any pressure to quit. On whether a Catholic legislator will replace him in the cabinet, he said, 'I do not know. This is a question that you should pose to the chief minister.' In his resignation letter, Sequeira thanked Sawant 'for giving me the opportunity to serve under your leadership.' Sequeira's exit leaves two cabinet berths vacant. The first fell vacant after former Art and Culture Minister Govind Gaude, a tribal leader, was dropped from the cabinet in June after he levelled corruption allegations in the department of Tribal Welfare – a portfolio held by Sawant. Senior BJP tribal leader Ramesh Tawadkar, the Speaker of the Goa legislative assembly, confirmed that he would be inducted into the cabinet. Tawadkar, who represents Canacona constituency, said he will resign from the Speaker's post on Thursday, and thereafter he will be sworn in as a minister. 'I wanted to continue as the Speaker, but the party has decided to give me this responsibility. The party organisation wanted me to take this post. So, I have to abide by the party's decision,' he said. Sequeira will be replaced in the cabinet by former chief minister and Margao MLA Digambar Kamat. Sequeira and Kamat were among the group of eight turncoat MLAs who switched over to the BJP in September 2022. 'I am getting an opportunity to serve the people of Goa. I am thankful to God, the central leadership of the party, and the chief minister,' Kamat said.

Mithun Chakraborty Claims TMC "Planned" The Bengal Files Trailer Halt: "In Bengal, FIRs Are Distributed Like Kurmura"
Mumbai (Maharashtra): Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri's directorial The Bengal Files, which focuses on the events of the Direct Action Day and the 1946 Calcutta killings, has landed in controversy even before its release. Actor-turned-politician Mithun Chakraborty discussed the controversy surrounding the trailer launch of The Bengal Files in Kolkata, expressing surprise at the entire ruckus without even watching the film. He also blamed the ruling party in the state, saying everything was "planned". Speaking to ANI, he said, "Everything was planned, but it was so surprising to me, without even seeing the trailer, without even seeing anything, they are opposing it for what? To face the truth? So, that is the problem. Nothing else." On August 18, during a press conference in Delhi, the filmmaker revealed that "FIRs have been filed by ruling party members" on the makers. Speaking about it, the Disco Dancer actor added, "In Bengal, FIRs are distributed like kurmura (puffed rice). Agar TMC ka koi chota-mota bhi hoga na, police station mein jayega FIR karo bolega, (police) kar dega. So, it was like that. So, never mind. If the FIR has been done, he (Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri) will fight it back. No problem". The film explores the communal violence in undivided Bengal during the 1940s, including events like the 1946 Direct Action Day and the Noakhali riots of 1946. Chakraborty lashed out at the critics, saying, "Everybody is scared of the truth. That is the thing," adding that the young generation should know about the truth. "It's 1947, even before my birth, which we don't know about. The next generation should know about it what happened during Noakhali or (know) about the great Calcutta killings... What happened... We read a line... What happened? You don't want to know the truth?" he said. The Bengal Files also features Anupam Kher, Darshan Kumar, and Pallavi Joshi. It is focused on the events of the Direct Action Day, aiming to unveil the "most brutal chapter" of Indian history. A ruckus erupted during the release of The Bengal Files trailer in Kolkata on August 16. Agnihotri said during the press meet, "I am discovering the political scenario. I had thought how anybody could stop the trailer, but when we went to Kolkata, the multiplex refused to show the trailer after all the permissions in writing. "Then, the hotel chain stopped showing the trailer. The police the wrire then I was told that the ruling party filed many FIRs as we stand here today, the FIRs are filed on us by the ruling party members and I have been told that ruling party has major objection on portrayal untold story of Hindu genocide. They have a problem with that film about demographic change." The Bengal Files is slated to hit theatres on September 5, 2025.
