Panaji: Panaji’s hot chair is watching not only by citizens but also by people outside, like the former Defense Minister Molyohar Parrikar’s Son Utpal has decided to compete against BJP – the party maintained by his father – after he was rejected by tickets.
Uncle Utpal, Avdhoot Parragar, made his presence feel in Miramar in a tent founded by UTPAL supporters, while the Snatchi Singer Singer Hema stopped by the drum support for beginners.
A few meters away, BJP workers who have worked against the ‘Babush’ monsoorrate in the last election, took their work seriously, checking the roll to ensure all their voters came out to choose.
“We are a party of carakartas and we respect the mandal decision.
He (monsoorrate) has a different work style and we give him basic support.
They (UTPAL) do not have workers.
They say there are voters who are silent but they don’t have enough workers and they move with the team The same everywhere, “said a BJP worker.
“He (Utpal) really depends on his father’s legacy, but Babush helps people,” the worker added.
This view is used by voters who say the monserrate criminal background will not deter him from choosing MLA again.
“We cannot forget the work he did when Panaji without water for a week and when it was flooded.
He responded to the message and took action quickly when we needed something.
We did not choose a party but personally chose it.
Utpal came out of blue and we did not know his abilities , “said the voter.
Avdhoot Parragar, on the other hand, insisted that the silent voter holds the key.
“There are strong underground currents everywhere in Goa, especially on constituencies where foreigners enter the party.
No one will be able to predict the results before March 10,” he said.
“People who come from above must understand that this has shared relationships and now there are divisions.
All ordinary people consider BJP as parties with differences, but now, with the MLAS congress jumping to BJP, what’s the difference?” He said.
When asked about Utpal rejected tickets, other supporters and RSS workers said, “National parties have something wrong with their procedures to choose candidates.” “This is not a split, it is a change forever.
There is something wrong and someone has to change it.
We did not fight against anyone but some had shifted their goal and we wanted to bring him back to the original place,” Avdhoot said.
Panaji residents said Congress’ Elvis Gomes could become a dark horse if Utpal eliminates the sound of Babush.
A congressional supporter said this was the first time the party had given “literacy candidates who were responsible and had done themselves very well”.
Others said Valmiki rose AAP would be better than he did in the last election.
