RGP playing vote-splitting game for BJP

The Revolutionary Goans Party (RGP) has finally fielded its president Manoj Parab for the North Goa parliamentary seat and Rupert Pereira for the South Goa parliamentary seat with the sole intention of defeating both the candidates of the INDIA alliance and helping the BJP candidates to win by a huge margin after splitting the secular votes in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.  Of course, the RGP leaders might be claiming that they have nothing to do with the BJP and the reason why they have fielded their own candidates to fight the Lok Sabha elections is because they want to send them to Parliament to raise important issues concerning Goans. Well, if the RGP leaders are really serious why they have always been refusing to come on one single platform with opposition parties and raising these very same issues till date? I think that the RGP leaders should stop giving silly justifications for fielding their own candidates for the two Lok Sabha seats because by now most Goans  know who had helped the BJP make a comeback during the 2022 assembly elections.
