Racists and bandits being rewarded by the PPP Govt.

Oct 28, 2023 Letters

Dear Editor,

A person (now a new government contractor) and members of family were steep in larceny of many types (including choke and rob and home invasion), forms a company post 2023 and has been given several billion dollars in State contract. Members of the family are well known to police and to many people for all kinds of theft. Doesn’t a company have to show competence, financial ability, history of work, and capacity in order to qualify for a huge contract?

Almost everyone knows that the government contractor and family members were (are) known bandits. Their victims were (are) almost all PPP supporters. They query why that person gets billion dollars government contracts, and they can’t even get a few thousand dollars contract. Supporters of the PPP toiled for their party and are neglected while newcomers, yesterday’s critics of the PPP, are highly rewarded. The father only recently became a contractor. Was it at the behest of a social male partner of a PPP biggie? Is the contractor fronting for anyone?

The head and other members of the family used the most derogatory and vilest language to describe the PPP and its supporters between 2010 and 2018. They consistently used the “C” word to describe Indians. And since 2020, the father uttered the foulest language, replete with obscenity, on social media against those who disagreed with him. Yet billions of dollars in contracts were awarded to the new company.  Are there no ethics and competence in the criteria for awarding of contracts? Is that what supporters of PPP voted for? The PPP supporters are taking note. Elections are only 20 months away.

Yours truly,

Nicholas Maharajan
