Panaji: Upset with Congress for not giving him a ticket for the Velim Constituency, former Velim Mla Benjamin Silva resigned and joined the Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Thursday.
When joining, Silva explained that he was interested in fighting from Velim.
President of the South Goa Advocate Association, Advocate Antonio Da Costa has explained that he intends to compete from Velim, but with Silva’s entry to TMC, his nomination is no longer sure.
Costa was one of the first in Goa to join TMC, traveling with MLA Luizinho Faleiro to Kolkata to meet with the Minister of Bengal Bengala Barat Mamata Banerjee.
Silva is poor with Congress to choose Velim Sarpanch Savio D’Silva for chairs.
Silva, who has returned to the Folding Congress in August 2020, has explained that he intends to run the election.
Silva has stopped Congress in 2017 after the party chose Filip Neri Rodrigues.
Even though Rodrigues continued to win the election, he then jumped to BJP along with nine other MLA Congress.
