PANAJI: With many competitors for the same seats, the BJP country has found itself in a disturbing position at least in five constituencies, most of whom are currently represented by the MLA Party.
A senior state official said that in Canacona, Santa Cruz, Sanvordem, Bicholim and Sanguem, there were more than one possibility.
Thus, the party is now conducting exercises such as secret ballots, consultations and surveys in front of finalization, which is likely to be carried out on Saturday when the party’s core committee and the party selection committee met.
“We have not finished the names of candidates in this constituency, and the final decision is likely to be taken on Saturday before the Parliamentary Council meeting,” said the senior official.
Santa Cruz is currently represented by BJP Mla Antonio Fernandes, who defected the Congress to the party in 2019.
However, now, however, Panaji Mla Astanio ‘Babush’ Monserrate was very encouraged to nominating his aide and former Taleiiga Sarpanch Angelo Cunha, who had forced parties To rethink MLA’s nomination sitting.
Other party officials including Vice President of BJP Anil Hoble, members of ZP Girish Uskaikar, BJP President Mandal Pramod Kamat and candidates BJP 2017 Hemant Gastrat has risked their claims to tickets.
In Bicholim too, the party had difficulty determining candidates.
Speaker Rajesh Patnekar currently represents the election, and is the MLA Arrivalary Party.
With a former member of ZP Shilpa up throwing his hat above the ring, the selection of candidates became complicated for the party.

Former Minister of Sports and Ex-BJP MLA Ramesh Tawadkar, who was rejected by candidates in 2017, has once again lurked ticket claims.
Mla Isidore Fernandes, who defected from Congress to BJP, was MLA sitting.
Former CM Manohar Parragar brought Tawadkar back to BJP with a guarantee of nomination, but after his death, political equality changed.
At Sanvordem, BJP has not been able to decide between sitting MLA and PWD Minister Deepak Pauskar and former BJP MLA Ganesh Gaonkar.
Both are very pitched for tickets.
Not much different from neighboring sanguem.
Former BJP Mla Subhash Phal Dessai and Deputy Chief of Minister Chandrakan, wife of Kavitekar, Savitri was in a commotion for tickets.
Sitting Sanguem Mla Prasad Gaonkar has beaten Phal Desai and Savitri in the 2017 assembly election.
Phal Desai lost with almost 1,000 votes, while Savitri was in third place.
