VASCO
Cortalim ZP candidate Merciana Vas, the wife of Cortalim MLA Anton Vas, inaugurated her election office at Queeny Nagar on Monday evening in the presence of Cortalim Sarpanch Senia Pereira, panch members from Cortalim, Quelosssim, Velsao and Cansaulim Panchayats and a large number of supporters.
Vas told reporters that this office would be permanent for the benefit of people in Velsao, Cansaulim and Sancoale.
"A lot of people who live in Velsao, Sancoale and Cansaulim sometimes face inconvenience to travel all the way to Cortalim to get their work done or put forth their grievances. This office will continue to operate even post-ZP elections,” said Merciana.
“We have always been working at the grassroots and we want to further improve our connect with the people from these areas by increasing our access to them," said Vas.
Meanwhile, the Cortalim Constituency Nagrik Samiti (CCNS) on Monday vowed to get Merciana Vas elected as ZP member from Cortalim Constituency with a margin bigger than what was secured by her husband, Cortalim MLA Anton Vas, during the last ZP elections.
In a press release, the CCNS said its members would leave no stone unturned to convert the victory of Merciana Vas into a win bigger than the one by Antonio Vas who had won his ZP election in 2020 by a margin of 4,567 votes, which was the highest margin among all candidates in the State.
"At the meeting in Cortalim, all speakers welcomed Merciana’s decision to contest the forthcoming elections. The bye-elections are being held to fill the vacancy created due to resignation of present ZP member, Antonio Vas, who was elected as MLA of Cortalim Constituency," stated the press note.
