Chief Minister Manohar addressed Goans on the occasion of Statehood Day, promising that his government will continue to work for the progress and development of Goa.
In a recorded message that was shared via his Twitter handle as well as the Chief Minister’s Office, the Chief Minister spoke of the work his government has managed and stressed on the bridges the government is building.
The Chief Minister, however, gave no update about his health, the progress of his recovery or when he is expected to return.
“On the occasion of the 31st Statehood day, I wish all Goans. 31 years ago we got Statehood and over the last 31 years we have done a lot of progress,” Parrikar said.
“Over the last four years, under the leadership of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a lot of development works are progressing rapidly. Mandovi, Galgibaga, Talpona are nearing completion and the Zuari bridge work is on in full swing. Other works, too, are progressing at the same brisk pace,” he added.
The CM who addressed the camera while sitting, also touched upon the jobs and social sector of the State.
“In the social sector too, the State government has drafted various types of schemes and the schemes are being reached to the people. Because of this, there is a lot of development in the social sector too,” the CM said.
“In the same way, for the youth entering the job market have benefitted in the IT sector and the Industrial. We want to take Goa’s progress forward and your support is very important. I am confident that on this occasion you will help the government to complete its work,” he concluded.
Parrikar who is now expected to be back only at the end of June was earlier criticized for only addressing the BJP karyakartas while ignoring the people at large in an earlier video message that was addressed at the booth level workers meeting.
