With the Mining Dependant Forum (MDF) announcing their entry into the assembly poll fray possibly with a pre-poll alliance with the MGP, Aam Aadmi Party and Congress -- since MDF has an estimated 2.5 to 3 lakh supporters -- if this alliance materializes then the BJP looks set to face certain defeat.
Should this alliance fail to crystallize, then due to the splitting of votes between the Congress, AAP, GFP, NCP, MGP, Shiv Sena, MDF, Revolutionary Goans and Goencho Avaaz, the pendulum will tilt towards BJP getting the advantage.
At the moment, the BJP, Congress and AAP are the main contenders. Should other alliances unfold with the passage of time, before the elections, again definite other permutations and combinations will rule the roost.
In these elections disenchantment of various large groups are bound to determine the final outcome. At the present moment should no pre-poll alliances materialize, then a three-cornered contest between the BJP, Congress and AAP should be envisaged.
As per latest projections, based on grassroots interactions, the Aam Aadmi Party will be the major gainer. The AAP will give Goan voters the choice of an alternative if accepted by the electorate.
