The war of words between former Save Goa Front MLAs Churchill Alemao and Reginaldo Lourenco refused to die down.
A day after the Curtorim Independent MLA Reginaldo Lourenco claimed that the former PWD minister is seen at the Chief Minister’s Mahalaxmi bungalow at Altinho, a visibly agitated Churchill demanded to know whether the Independent MLA has gone on a silent mode on issue such as Manipur and Fr Bolmax because he has been given a Pacifier (rubber nipple) by the BJP to keep quite.
Addressing the media on Tuesday, Churchill said it is his right and the right of any citizen to approach the Chief Minister for any work. “No one can stop me or any citizen from going to the Chief Minister for any work,” he said.
Turning his tirade on Reginald, the former Minister demanded to know why the Curtorim MLA is silent on issues such as Manipur and Fr Bolmax. "Is Reginald silent because the BJP has given him the baby pacifier (rubber nipple) or whether he is silent because he has been given the IDC Corporation by the BJP," he demanded to know.
