Panaji, Feb 8 The ruling BJP in Goa in its manifesto for the February 14 assembly polls has promised three free gas cylinders to domestic consumers, no increase in the state government-imposed value added tax on petrol and diesel for the next five years, along with affordable housing.
In its manifesto released by Union Minister for Road Transport and Housing Nitin Gadkari on Tuesday, the BJP has also promised to make Goa into an international football destination, while also assuring to turn the state's economy into a $50 billion powerhouse.
"We are committed to our manifesto. We have completed 80 per cent of the previous manifestos and we have released the report card.
