Having failed miserably to provide any relief or benefit to Goans, Chief Minister Pramod Sawant is now resorting to “fot, fotting and fottingponna” to continue to fool the people of Goa, alleged the Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday.
AAP spokespersons Sandesh Telekar and Capt Venzy Viegas said Sawant’s claim of ‘sending Rs 5000 directly to the bank account of each Goans is an outright “lie” just like his leader Prime Minister Narendra Modi had lied when he every Indian would get money in their account from the black by money stashed abroad.
Sandesh disclosed that none of the people including media persons he contacted admitted to having received Rs. 5000 in their account. “I wonder whether Sawant himself has received this amount as he is a citizen of Goa,” he said.
AAP further challenged The CM to give details of people who have been paid Rs 5000 by naming the persons who received the amount, their account number in which it was transferred and the date of transfer.
“I am sure that Sawant will shy from giving this information just like his cabinet colleague Nilesh Cabral chickened out and give the excuse of getting the information under the Right to Information Act,” he said adding that the BJP leaders are only known to make lofty promises and tall claims without any substance in them.
“Sawant who failed to give anything new is only relying upon schemes launched by his predecessors little realizing that many have been relegated to the deep freezer for months now,” said Capt Venzy.
Sandesh pointed out that the Laadli Laxmi scheme that was launched with much fanfare by former chief minister Manohar Parrikar has been in a state of limbo for the last two years, while senior citizens have not received the pension for months now.
