As the Congress and Trinamool Congress juggernaut rolled into Benaulim on Sunday, NCP Benaulim MLA Churchill Alemao said he has no problem if political parties are entering the constituency.
He, however, reminded the political parties that the bhumiputras of Benaulim will only vote and re-elect Churchill in the ensuing polls. “The people of Benaulim and Goa are solidly with Churchill. I don’t need parties to win election. I belong to the people”, he said.
When asked whether any of the political parties have approached him to join their parties, he shot back saying he was instrumental in floating at least 3 parties in his career, including the Goan’s People party, UGDP and the Save Goa Front.
“My politics is centered around the bhumiputras. They are with me and I am with me. I am not afraid of the political parties coming into the state”, he asserted.
