The forthcoming 2022 Assembly elections in Goa is proving to be a pot-pourri of several parties, vying fiercely to change the face of Goa and free the State of the incumbent BJP government, with freebies, and promises of fulfilling each and every need of Goans, if elected to power. While it is almost certain that no political party can achieve their goal single-handedly, a pre-poll alliance of like-minded parties is a must. However, it remains to be seen how much of party ego will be swallowed or compromised to achieve this goal. Secondly, a coalition of opposition parties along with an agreed Common Minimum Programme to fulfill all election promises, is bound to succeed and transform the political landscape and future of the people of Goa. Goa as a result, may soon turn out to be another biblical promised land of the erstwhile beleaguered and distraught Israelites, overflowing with milk and honey.
