While addressing the media Pednekar said, “I was impressed with Arvind Kejriwal’s developmental vision for Goa. I joined this party today officially, but I have been associated with it for the past six months. During Covid times, when the government was busy doing corruption in the health sector, AAP was the only party working on the ground. By distributing ration, it assisted lakhs of families. It also deployed its volunteers across Goa to spread awareness about the new virus and to help the needy by providing oximeters”.
She further said, “As of now Kejriwal promised five guarantees to the state and his promises will change the fate of Goa. Goans yearning for a change. In the last election, Goans trusted Congress and voted for them. However, Congress MLAs betrayed Goans and joined BJP for their advancement. AAP is the only party who will transform Goa”.
Cecille Rodrigues said, “Pednekar contested Zilla Panchayat election from Reis Magos in the year 2020 and she has been into social work since 2012. Today, she has been joining the AAP along with her supporters”.
