Union Minister and North Goa BJP candidate Shripad Naik on Wednesday appealed to voters to elect the BJP and ensure that the nation’s interest is safeguarded.
Naik was interacting with voters during a visit to Mayem constituency, where he visited some houses and temples, besides convening corner meetings in the area.
Among the various places he visited included Mayem, Vathadev, Ona Maulinguem, Chorao, Kudchirem, Shirgao, Karapur, Narve and Pilgao.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government in the last five years has proved to be the best government for all people and communities. Modi is a world leader and India is an upcoming superpower which is shining in every aspect,” said Naik.
Reaffirming that the central and state governments were keen to resuming mining activity, Naik said he had completed 1,000 projects by utilising MP funds, adding that he ranked 10th in India as far as development works was concerned.
Among those accompanying Naik during his tour of the constituency included Mayem MLA Praveen Zantye, former speaker Anant Shet, ZP member Ankita Navelkar, sarpanchas and panchas of different panchayats.
Zantye was confident that Mayem constituency would give over 15,000 votes to the BJP.
