Cong workers urged to live up to people’s expectations

MARGAO 

Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) Chief Girish Chodankar has said the people of Goa are looking at the Congress Party with complete confidence and trust to come back to power and put an end to the insensitive regime of the most corrupt BJP government.

He said it is now the duty of each Congress worker to live up to the expectations of the people and put in hard work to ensure that people’s hardships are minimized.

While addressing the first batch of block presidents from south Goa, Chodanakr said, “We must aggressively work to strengthen the organisation and defeat the divisive political parties.”

He was accompanied by CLP leader Digambar Kamat, South Goa District Congress President Joe Dias, GPCC General Secretary in-charge of South Goa District Subhash Faldessai and General Secretary Pradip Naik. 

CLP leader Digambar Kamat said the BJP government had come to power in 2012 by misleading the people and grabbed power undemocratically in 2017. “Today, it has failed on all fronts and Goa is pushed into bankruptcy. I am confident that the insensitive and anti-people BJP government will not even get double-digit MLAs elected in 2022,” he added.

Kamat appealed to all block presidents to work with responsibility for people and build up the Congress party by maintaining complete discipline. 

The CLP leader said that this is the only government whose corruption is certified by the Goa Lokayukta in multiple cases. 

The working of blocks was reviewed and all were advised to lay emphasis on regular block meetings and to be the voice of people. The reconstitution of booth committees was also reviewed by the GPCC leaders. 

Block presidents Pushkal Sawant (Curchorem), Assiz Noronha (Cuncolim), Gopal Naik (Margao), Manuel Colaco (Quepem), Manuel D’Costa (Nuvem), Pralay Bhagat (Canacona), Royan Viegas (Velim), Imran Sheikh (Vasco) and Mahesh Naik, (Marmagoa) attended the meeting and expressed their views on building up the membership of the party.
