Panchayats Minister Mauvin Godinho on Thursday appealed to people to vote the BJP into power and even suggested that South Goa Candidate Pallavi Dempo had a high chance of being included in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's cabinet as a minister from Goa.
Godinho was speaking to reporters after addressing a large gathering of people at the Dabolimcha Raja Mantap in Dabolim in the presence of South Goa BJP Candidate Pallavi Dempo, Chicalim Sarpanch Kamla Prasad Yadav and other BJP members.
Pallavi Dempo spent the entire day canvassing in Dabolim constituency along with Godinho and others while even celebrating Eid at the house of Shaikh Abdullah in Dabolim.
The campaign trail began with offering of prayers at the Narsinh Sateri Temple in Chicalim followed by a meeting at Susheela Winds, meeting at Dabolimcha Raja Mantap, Eid celebrations at the house of Shaikh Abdullah, visit to the houses of Anacleto D’Souza at Jairam Nagar and Manuel Dias in Chicalim, followed by meetings at Joggers Park, Chicalim, New Vaddem and finally a corner meeting at Bogmalo.
"PM Narendra Modi is stressing on women empowerment and has chosen a woman candidate for South Goa. When you have an intelligent and highly educated candidate like Pallavi Dempo on the way to her victory, she could stand a chance to become a minister in PM Narendra Modi's Cabinet,” said Mauvin.
“PM Narendra Modi has special affection for Goa and the contribution of the Dempo family for Goa cannot be forgotten. Pallavi Dempo has very good educational qualifications and experience of 30 years in social service in the fields of education, sports, media and other fields.”
Godinho also rubbished claims of opposition parties that Dabolim Airport would die a slow death and close down in the future
