MARGAO: The BJP has maintained its stranglehold over the South Goa Zilla Panchayat with party candidate Sanjana Velip declared elected unopposed as the Chairperson of the district Panchayat body.
Sanjana’s election as the new South ZP chairperson was a foregone conclusion after the Presiding officer Gaurish Sankhwalkar had received her lone nomination paper for the post.
Election for the South ZP Chairperson’s post had fallen vacant following the resignation by outgoing ZP Chief Suvarna Tendulkar.
After her election, Sanjana said she would carry out the work at the Zilla Panchayat by taking all the members into confidence. “Outgoing Chairperson Suvarna Tendulkar has occupied the post for the last three years. We will all work together and take everyone along to bring in development of the district”, she said.
