Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadmi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal has arrived in Goa for a four-day visit. In his campaign, he said "I heard that many BJP workers are contesting on Congress' ticket, like in Salcete area, so that they can join BJP later. People need to be aware that if they're not voting for (AAP) they're indirectly voting for BJP."
"People of Goa have only two options (AAP or BJP) in front of them" he added.
Days before, Aam Aadmi Party announced candidates for three more seats for the upcoming Goa Assembly polls. It is now the seventh candidates' list of APP. AAP fielded Parshuram Sonurlekar from Mormugao and Mario Cordeiro from the Saligao constituency. While Mahesh Vithu Satelkar will contest from Aldona seat.
Meanwhile, the voting in Gao will take place on February 14. The voting will be held as per covid protocols in the state, said the Election Commission. The patients can also vote through postal ballot, said the poll panel. The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress are the main contenders for the elections in Goa.
