18-jan-2013 ….With just few months left for the parliamentary elections to be held in the country the state Maharashtra gomantak party on Thursday said that since the state led bjp government was a coalition government which also involved mla’s of the mgp party its party would go ahead with its coalition dharma and would support the bjp candidate for the upcoming two parliamentary seats in goa once the mgp central committee decides on it …
It may be noted that since the state mgp party was a part of the congress led government in the last tenure it had support the congress candidate in the last parliamentary elections where in the congress-ncp combine had fielded jitendra deshprabhu on the north goa seat and Francisco sardinha on the south goa seat …
Incidentally the north goa seat had gone to the bjp party where in present mp shripad naik was elected while the south goa seat had gone to the congress party where in present south goa mp Francisco sardinha had won …
Though north goa seat has been an easy cake walk for the bjp party to win the north goa mp seat where in the state congress party could not make it it seems even the state congress party would have a tough time to win the south goa mp seat after mgp has declared their support to the bjp party as the mgp party has three of its mla’s who do fall under the south goa mp seat …..
Dhavlikar also stated that mgp as well as bjp were together as goans had elected them to be together for the development of the state and the same would go ahead and there was no question of supporting up any other political party then bjp for he parliamentary elections..
