Kankonkar voted for me in Panchayats: Isidore

20 Jun 2017 06:57 PM

Canacona MLA Isidore Fernandes has claimed that Kankonkar elected panchas in the panchayat elections because of him and just not the candidates.



Also because he can get the developmental works done even if he is in the opposition.

The Congress MLA has captured four of the six panchayats in the Canacona constituency.

Isidore has managed to capture the panchayats of Loliem, Poinguinim, Khotigao and Gaodongri.

But he could not manage Shristhal and Agonda. Incidentally, Shristhal Sarpanch Devendra Naik and Agonda Sarpanch Barsat Naik Gaonkar claim they don’t belong to any party.

But Isidore feels that people voted for him. Not so much the candidates who won the election.

The Congress MLA has also alleged that the BJP tried to win over the elected panchas, who actually defeated their candidates.


But they could not succeed in these four panchayats, which belong to his old Poinguinim constituency.
