No politician from Fatorda can afford to ignore the crucial Christian ST vote if they hope to make it to the Legislative Assembly in 2022. That explains why ST conventions are being organised in the constituency every Sunday. Goa Forward chief Vijaibab Sardesai hosted an ST convention last Sunday, apparently to keep him in good stead in 2022. Arch political rival, Damubab Naik, who has set his eyes firmly on the ST vote, has not lagged. He has now called for a convention of the STs on 12-12-21. The party has roped in CM Pramodbab Sawant to address the convention. Wait and watch.
