Babush joins Goa Forward, to support Parrikar in Panaji

25 Jul 2017 05:07 PM

There is a big big news. Babush Monseratte has joined Goa Forward.



He was supposed to contest against chief minister Manohar Parrikar in Panaji by-poll as a Congress candidate.

As Goa Forward, he would now support Parrikar in Panaji.

It is a master stroke by the duo – CM Parrikar and Goa Forward Minister Vijai Sardesai.

Vijai personally got Babush to GF Headquarters in Panaji, to make the announcement and formally welcome him in the party.

All the GF leaders, including ministers Vinod Palayekar and Jayesh Salgaonkar, were summoned to the Panaji office.

Vijai said Goa Forward would support Parrikar in Panaji by-election.

There could be a possibility of some more Congress MLAs also resigning after this.

Vijai claims that they have not approached anybody.

But if the Congress MLA resigns, he says Goa Forward will contest that seat.
