MARGAO: South Goa Congress MP Francisco Sardinha today that newcomers in Congress who have worked for 3-5 days should not tell whom should be given tickets for LS polls.
“Newcomers in Congress who have worked for 3-5 days should not tell whom should be given tickets for LS polls. Voters will decide on candidatature and later party,” said Sardinha.
He further said that some say they are working for the progress of Congress but in reality they are on BJP’s payroll, they want to end Congress.
“If the party gives the ticket, and if the people want me to contest the 2024 elections, I will contest and it will be the last election. I will not contest any further after this but I will stay with the party even if not given a ticket,” he added
He said that people have supported and elected me as many as four times to the Lok Sabha from South Goa. This time, I am willing to contest the election for the last time if party gives me the ticket. I want your support and backing”, he said.
Sardinha also said that no construction of any kind should be allowed on the heritage site in Old Goa.
The government should send a letter to the panchayat asking it to withdraw the permission if it has given a license to someone.
“Apart from this, Sardin also said that many protested to demolish illegal constructions in Old Goa, and action should be taken against them,” he added.
The MP also said that Goa was under Portuguese control. Portugal has facilitated the issuance of passports to persons born before 1961 during the Portuguese era.
Currently there is an issue of OCI and Indian passports are not issued to those whose birth is registered in Portugal. He also clarified that a letter has been written to the Union Home Minister as well as the Foreign Minister.
