Panaji: In a press note issued on Friday, the BJP Goa Pradesh has asked Congress to do its homework before speaking on any issue.
“Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has blamed the BJP for allowing coal hub in Goa. We want to take him back in time to 2007 when Digambar Kamat was CM and had granted permission for the expansion of coal handling twice during his tenure and even granted environmental clearance by the GSPCB,” said the BJP Goa Pradesh adding that the Congress should stop misleading the people of Goa.
Stating that the BJP had brought all round development, the press note stated, “Unemployment was rampant during Congress tenure. BJP created government jobs and recruited eligible candidates. It also encouraged self-employment and encouraged the youth to set up start-ups. Congress, on the other hand, tried to distance Goans from their right to jobs which led to a huge brain drain.”
Further adding that law and order was at its best during the last 10 years, the BJP said, “We have tightened the noose around criminals who were a nuisance when Congress was in power and converted a lawless State into a lawful Goa. Congress should thus refrain from making baseless allegations against the BJP. The people of Goa are aware of which Party has committed itself to them.”
