MARGAO, OCT 28
Former minister Mickky Pacheco has said that he would not attend any meeting of the NCP as long as Revenue Minister Jose Philip D’Souza heads the party.
“I have been humiliated by Jose Philip by leading the assault on me at Vasco for no reason. I cannot take things lying down. I will not attend any meeting of the NCP which is presided over by Jose Philip. I will not see his face again”, he said.
Pacheco told newsmen after the Vasco police recorded his statement on the ugly incident at the Vasco hotel where he was assaulted by Jose Philip and his supporters.
When asked whether he would appeal to the people of Vasco to defeat the panel supported by the Revenue Minister, he said that he would only appeal to the people to vote and elect good candidates who would look after the betterment of Mormugao. “The port Town need people who will truly work for the welfare of the town and its citizens. I will only appeal to the people to elect good people”, he said.
