Congress Open to All Options to Keep BJP Away from Power in Goa: Kamat

News 18  

Questioning the `delay’ by the BJP in forming a new government in Goa, Congress on Friday said it was ready to consider all possible alternatives to keep the saffron party away from power. The BJP, which won 20 out of 40 seats in the last month’s Goa Assembly elections and has secured support of the two Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party MLAs and three Independents, has yet to stake a claim to form new government. Senior Congress leader Digambar Kamat told reporters here that the failure to stake claim indicated that everything is not well within BJP”. The BJP could win 20 seats, one short of the majority figure, only because votes got split, he claimed.The mandate was clearly against the ruling dispensation which is visible from the 33.31 per cent vote share of BJP, which makes it clear that 66.69 per cent voters did not want BJP,” Kamat added.
