With vote counting day drawing near political parties have hit the ground running to strategise on either forming the government or be an integral part of the next dispensation. Independents are licking their chops hoping to be kingmakers, of course in exchange for power and pelf.
All indicators are pointing towards a splintered mandate, therefore parties are exploring all options and crucial parleys are in progress to form the next sarkar.
Back channel mediations are on and all outfits are trying to hold their flock together to avoid mass defections.
Every party is claiming a thumping victory but these are only mind games to keep their candidates morale high. Head honchos of national parties have started winging their way to Goa, there are already talks of 'mergers and acquisitions'.
Hopefully Goa shall be rid of the saffron stain this time around and we shall have a government which actually is people centric, pro-environment, has an inclusive agenda and whose heart beats for Goans and Goans alone.
