PANJIM: Aam Aadmi Party said that Margao MLA and Congress Leader Digambar Kamat’s thought of suggesting to his Congress high command to have an alliance with Goa Forward Party , MGP and NCP betrays his lack of confidence in the Congress. AAP said that such a move also indicates his secret understanding with the BJP as the Goa Forward Party and MGP are already part of the NDA while the lone NCP MLA is openly supporting the BJP in Goa.
In a press statement issued here today, AAP Leader Ramiro Mascarenhas said that it was natural that Kamat did not think of other opposition parties including AAP as he knows that AAP will not fall prey to BJP ‘s manipulation of other parties.
Stating that the leader of opposition was all the time offering only suggestions to the government, Mascarenhas said that Kamat’s job was to go on the offensive as the misrule of BJP Government in Goa was taking a toll on the health of Goans. “He(Kamat) is quiet on attempts by Health Minister Vishwajit Rane to privatise South Goa District Hospital. There is no demand for investigation into Labour Scam in Goa, Illegal Mining activity and illegal transporation of mining ore . Is giving only suggestions, the job as Leader of Opposition” asked Ramiro Mascarenhas.
Meanwhile, AAP leader Sidharth Karapurkar said that Digambar Kamat’s utterances about alliances with NDA partners shows that all were having an understanding with Modi and Shah to bring BJP back to power in 2022 in Goa.
He said that AAP will fight BJP and its hidden allies like in with the support of the people . Karapurkar also said that AAP had delivered on basics and won the trust of the people of Delhi who returned Kejriwal back into power as they saw a future for their children. He said that Goa was going through a crisis with no one left to speak for the people.
