Chairman of Goa Rehabilitation Board and Cumbarjua MLA Rajesh Faldessai has urged the voters of the constituency to strengthen the double-engine BJP government at the Centre and State by giving a 70% lead for the party’s North Goa Lok Sabha candidate Shripad Naik.
He was speaking in the presence of Chief Minister Dr. Pramod Sawant at the ‘Viksit Bharat Modi Ki Gurantee Sankalp Patra Abhiyaan’ at Old Goa and Cumbarjua on Tuesday.
Sawant met traders and vendors and shopkeepers at the panchayat hall, Old Goa, and also held a Labharthi Sammelan at Cumbarjua later in the evening.
In his address at Old Goa, Sawant praised Faldessai for his proactiveness in pursuing works in the constituency.
“Rajesh may have been elected on Congress ticket, but he joined BJP for development and I welcome this. He is eager to complete works of the people in the constituency and hence he supported the BJP. Whenever he meets me, he always tells me that this road needs repairs, or that bundh needs repairs, another culvert needs repairs. He is always concerned about the problems in the constituency and his people, especially the women and youth,” he added.
Congratulating Dr. Sawant for completing 5 years as chief minister, Faldessai urged all his constituents to vote for BJP for the forthcoming parliamentary polls on May 7 while addressing the gathering at Old Goa.
“Our CM is hardworking, and clears all our files swiftly. He makes time at his bungalow and office. I pray that God gives him strength and health to carry on his good work,” he said.
“You have seen various projects like the Ayush Hospital, Zuari bridge, Atal Setu, Mopa airport, and other infrastructure works. Both the governments under Modi and Sawant have unveiled so many schemes and so many people have benefitted. We are working towards Viksit Bharat. Our BJP government has been doing good work under PM Modi for the past 10 years. We have his blessings. Whatever we have asked from him, the PM has given our state,” added Rajesh.
Speaking at Cumbarjua, Faldessai pointed out that there were so many schemes, even for barbers, carpenters and fishermen.
