Stating that GPCC President Girish Chodankar had voluntarily resigned and there was no pressure on anyone in the party, Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) Vice President and Mormugao leader Sankalp Amonkar on Monday said there was no threat to the Congress party, which has a bright future.  

“Chodankar has resigned as GPCC president and no one has forced or pressurised him. He has voluntarily resigned and taken the responsibility on himself. He has taken the responsibility for the results of the last parliamentary elections. Not only Chodankar, but several Pradesh Congress Committee presidents have resigned from their posts,” said Amonkar.   

“But this does not mean that the party wanted to remove him or put some pressure on him. There is no pressure on anyone in the Congress.”  

Amonkar also appealed to all youth, who are part of the Congress, not to be demotivated about their future.   

“I want to state that as GPCC vice president, the Congress party has a very bright future ahead. I have been with the party from NSUI, Youth Congress times and in my personal experience with this party, many of our members have risen to good posts in the party.”   

“There have been several other members who are today legislators, candidates and even Chodankar was party president,” said Amonkar.
