As expected, less turnout for by-polls for 4 ZP seats

20 Aug 2017 09:08 PM

The by-polls for 4 Zilla Panchayat constituencies in Goa were held on Sunday. The elections saw very less response by the constituents in all four constituencies.



ZP by-polls were held in Khorlim and Calangute in North Goa as well as Curtorim and Nuvem in South Goa.

The overall turnout of voters was very less. Curtorim & Nuvem were vacant since both Clafacio Dias and Wilfred D’sa were elected as MLAs while Sean martins and Janita Madkaikar in Calangute and Corlim had resigned to contest in Panchayat elections.

The ZP by-elections are fought on party lines, both the main parties BJP and the Congress have given new faces as candidates.
