Goa Forward Party president Vijai Sardesai has reiterated his demand for the replacement of Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, pointing out that Industries Minister Mauvin Godinho is defending the CM only because of his pending power scam case.
Referring to the media briefing by BJP leaders, including Mauvin Godinho, Giriaj Pai and Daji Salkar, Sardesai said the BJP has not replied to any of the points raised by him with facts and figures, demanding to know why can’t the BJP categorically state that NITI Aayog was wrong.
“The top planning body of the country NITI Aayog presented facts showing that the State engine has failed. Based on this conclusion, I have demanded the replacement of the driver of the State engine of the BJP’s double engine Sarkar, Sawant,” said Sardesai.
He said BJP leaders Mauvin Godinho, Giriaj Pai and Daji Salkar who addressed the press conference had no other option but to attack him at a personal level. “As an opposition MLA, I have a right to demand the replacement of the CM if he has failed at his job,” said Sardesai.
