Energised by the sea of supporters from every corner of Goa at my nomination filing in Margao today for South Goa Parliamentary elections on INDIA alliance. This bid represents Goa’s NGOs, farmers, traditional workers, and every Goan fighting for our homeland.
The office opening in Margao sends a strong message: With a new buildup of workers, the people are with us. We've built a dedicated team in Margao from scratch.
The Benaulim constituency I.N.D.I.A office is open! A vital step towards change and protecting Goa. Together,
@INCGoa
and
@AAPGoa
workers have mobilized a large crowd, uniting for our future.
Was this the reason for BJP to arm twist TMC to enter the electoral fray in Goa just 3 months before elections? To split the opposition votes? Coal, coal, coal...Adani ka game....
Election campaigning is relentless, but there's always time for a delightful pause to savor the flavors of Xit-Kodi-Nuste & Khare Bangdo while navigating the vibrant pathways of the Canacona constituency.

The Congress campaign in South Goa received a huge boost when the charismatic and intellectual Congress leader and former India EAM, Dr Sashi Tharoor joined Captain Viriato Fernandes and team Dabolim Congress.

is talking about this Vikas of Modi. Let us not allow this development in South Goa. Let us keep all of them far away.
One thing that struck me all through my campaign trail so far, is that peoole are desperate for change.
As I wended my way across the by-lanes of Sanguem, I sought the blessings of the people and shared with them my vision for a brighter and more sustainable future for our Goa.
An exhilarating experience engaging with voters of Velim constituency at the vibrant local market and thereafter series of interactions with Banaulikars. Later attended a meeting which unexpectedly drew a huge crowd.
The warmth and encouragement we received, will surely spur us

I am appalled by the comments from Congress's South Goa candidate claiming the Indian Constitution was forcefully imposed upon Goans. Our freedom fighters believed wholeheartedly that Goa is an inseparable part of India. Congress delayed Goa's liberation by 14 years. Now, their
Goa has always been close to my heart. Meeting with people from Curchorem at such a picturesque location only fills me with a sense of pride to be a part of this beautiful land and the warmth and support being showered upon me by the people of Goa only brings out the soldier
PM Modi should come out of the closet of petty politics instead of being a habitual offender in instigating division based on religion, caste, creed or colour.
In the last election to the office of President of India, there were two candidates - Smt Draupadi Murmu and Shri Yashwant Sinha
The BJP and its allies supported Smt Murmu. 17 Opposition parties, including Congress, supported Mr Sinha
Support for a candidate was not based on
Happy Eid al-Fitr! As we end Ramadan, let's carry its lessons of patience, compassion, and unity forward. Wishing everyone a joyful and blessed celebration.

Capt. Viriato addresses concerns of the coastal fishing community in Goa regarding threats issued by corrupt politicians to label their homes as illegal. He reassures them of their rights and advocates for their protection as per the laws passed by the Parliament.
Paid tributes to Dr. Jack de Sequeira on his birth anniversary. He has been duly conferred the title ‘Father of the Opinion Poll’ as it was he who led the fight for a referendum, the only one ever held & the one that let Goa decide its fate.
Jai Hind, Jai Goa.
Only those who have experienced pain and loss of close family members understand the grief and agony of those who have lost their loved ones.
The only hope for India….
CHOWGM Retreat in Goa took Goa on International Horizon as Tourist Destination. Goa became favourite of International Visitors to India. Congress Government led by Smt. Indira Gandhi selected Goa as venue for CHOWGM Retreat in 1983.
Lot happened before 2014!

Honest efforts of Congress Government led by PM Rajiv Gandhi gave an opportunity to Goans to witness the International Football in Goa on a Ground built in 7 months. Football Fever was at all time high in 1989. Lot happened before 2014!
Deeply saddened by the passing of the legendary singer Maria Antonia Mendes, famously known as Antonette, the "Melody Queen." She enchanted millions with her voice. My heartfelt condolences to her family. May her soul rest in peace.
As I walked the streets, sharing a vision for a vibrant, sustainable future for Goa, I was embraced by the warm welcome of the people of Sanguem. They shared their hopes and concerns with such sincerity, igniting a deep emotional connection and a shared collective resolve for

The once beautiful Vaddem lake has been turned into a stagnant water body of corruption n loot by successive MLAs. It's time that our vote on 14 Feb helps to restore the lake to its pristine glory.

The begining of sidelining South Goa. This is not about Bab Yuri Alemao or Bab Francisco Sardinha, It's all about respect to positions they are holding. They are elected by the People. This discriminatory act BJP Governments is Insult to People of South Goa.
Ravindra Bhavan, Margao has announced Inauguration of Film Club on Sunday 30th June 2024. What about much needed Music, Dance & Theatre Classes at Ravindra Bhavan, Margao? Is there conflict of interest? Are attempts being made to safeguard interest of any Private Institution?
Has BJP Sarkar allowed this turn coat / betrayer MLA to run extortion racket at MPA? Is it not economic terrorism that is crippling India’s economy? BJP Sarkar seems comfortable with the set up.
BJP govt decision allowing opening of liquor stores near schools and religious places in Goa exposes true character of the party with a difference. Shame on a party devoid of morality and out to kill the soul of India.
