Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao on Wednesday exuded confidence that the Congress would form the government in 2027 in view of the support the party is receiving and the growing interest in joining Congress,

He was addressing a function at the South Goa district Congress office on Wednesday held to welcome Mansoor Shaikh Mohammad from Cuncolim, along with his supporters, into the party-fold.

After his formal induction, Mansoor Shaikh Mohammad said that there is no alternative than Congress for the future of the state and the country. “The present dispensation is creating divisions among religions. People are being misguided and instigated against other faiths. This must stop, and only Congress can foster communal harmony,” Mohammad said.

The Cuncolim MLA stated that Goa is known for its heritage and communal harmony, but the BJP government has consistently tried to divide people along religious lines.
