RGP chief questions duplicity on Mhadei

OLD GOA

Revolutionary Goans Party (RGP) supremo Manoj Parab exposed the duplicity of BJP, Congress, AAP and Goa Forward on the Mhadei issue, and urged Goans not to get fooled by the drama of these parties which are all hand in gloves to sell Mhadei.

Speaking to reporters in Panaji on Tuesday, Parab pointed out how the Karnataka Congress has focused its election campaign in the State on Mhadei and has promised the voters that they will ensure that the project is completed in two years if they come to power.

Then, targeting the BJP, Parab pointed out that the party’s water resources minister Govind Karjol has said that the party will go ahead with the Mhadei drinking water project.

“Karnataka BJP is going full steam on the Mhadei issue but our Chief Minister Pramod Sawant is talking about going to approach Supreme Court which is only an eyewash to fool Goans,” Parab stated.

Later, coming down on AAP, Parab pointed out to a piece of news wherein Karnataka AAP leaders have slammed the BJP government over its failure to provide drinking water to the Hubballi-Dharwad region.

Speaking on Goa Forward, Parab said that Vijai Sardesai is hand in glove with the other three parties in selling Mhadei to Karnataka.
