Mickky made it clear that he has no problem in being in the opposition, saying that he can get work done even when he not on the right side of power.
Responding to a question from a villager whether he would withdraw support if the government does not solve the problem facing the people of Nuvem, Mickky said “I am supporting this government issue-based. I was not taken into confidence when this road work was being taken up. I was not representing Nuvem when the road was approved. No one took objection or oppose the road, neither was the panchayat made aware of the road alignment”, he said.
Saying that he would stand by the people of Nuvem on the issue, Mickky said he would not hesitate to withdraw support if he feels the government is not functioning well. “There are many pressing issued facing Goa. I will take the people into confidence when the time comes to withdraw support and stand by my people,” he said.
