PANAJI: “BJP has lost the South Goa seat purely due to the anger of the general public against the Modi-led government and Misgovernance, Massive Corruption, Arrogance, Anti-Democratic and Anti Constitution acts of BJP Goa, such as engineering and encouraging defections to subvert public mandate,” said Congress leader Sunil Kauthankar.
He said the BJP has been trying to run away from owning the responsibility for the humiliating defeat of BJP leaders by blaming Catholic Priests and contradicting their own Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant who is on record claiming the circular by the Archbishop was in favour of BJP.
“This is a mirror the BJP leaders should look into, It’s time for BJP to do Chintan Baithak analysing defeat in South & they will realise that their own voter base is shifting to Congress after being fed up of their corrupt and communal party,” he said.
Kaunthankar said the statistics will further clear the communal smoke screen created by BJP, Considering 80% of the total approximately 1,30,000 Catholic voters voting for Congress it comes to 10,8,000 voted for us which means almost one lakh Hindu voters voted for Congress.
It looks like the BJP has still not learnt a lesson that politics of hatred and divisiveness doesn’t work out in Goa, as we all believe in life and let live and respect and protect each other’s way of life and belief, Goa decides on merits and this stupidy of spreading and dividing people on communal lines will completely finish BJP, he said.
The final mirror BJP must look into and introspect is Ayodhya’s seat in UP were there Catholics who defeated them there and at several other seats in UP?
Their comments on Vijai Sardesai show their desperation and fear about our respected alliance partner who is seen as a major threat to this government in the days to come, he said.
