Panaji, (The
States. news) Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national
president JP Nadda on Thursday exhorted party workers to work with full energy
to ensure BJP’s win in the upcoming assembly elections once more.
Addressing party workers at Valpoi in North Goa, he asked the workers to
strengthen the party in all the 40 constituencies in the state and ensure that
the party comes back to power post assembly elections in the state.
‘We received 32 per cent votes in 2017 and formed a government. Performance in
Zilla Parishad elections too was good. Now our duty is to take it ahead,’ he
said.
Remembering former Defence Minister and Chief Minister of Goa late Manohar
Parrikar, he said, ‘Parrikar worked for the welfare of the people and brought
changes in their life. We remember how he attended the inauguration function of
Atal Setu in spite of being ill and asked how is the ‘Josh’. I am sure Pramod
Sawant will take ahead the legacy.’
Mr Nadda said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had special attachment with Goa and
that was the reason that spoke to the people of the state after it achieved the
target of 100 per cent of COVID vaccination.
He expressed confidence that the target of a second dose of COVID vaccination
would be achieved soon.
The BJP President said the COVID vaccination had impacted the tourism sector
adversely but now more and more people were visiting the state.
Targeting the Congress party, he said its leaders used to make promises during
elections and forget them later.
He listed out various schemes run by the state government and support extended
by the Central government for development of the state.
Earlier, addressing party workers at Amona in North Goa, he exhorted party
workers to work with full energy to ensure BJP’s win in the upcoming assembly
elections once more.
‘While Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Pramod Sawant are making
efforts, you too should see that the party is strengthened and there is
happiness in society. Women are empowered and even the interests of those
belonging to marginalised sections of society are protected,’ he said.
