PANJIM: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) brought to fore the various issues faced by Nunem locals in Sanguem for the past many years, and have been neglected by the previous governments.
Over 100 villagers, large number of women attended the meeting held in the village with AAP leaders Sandesh Teleikar Dessai and Gaurisha Gaonkar.
The locals highlighted how the village lacks basics necessities such as water and electricity. Connectivity is a major issue as the residents have to walk at least 7-8 kms to the nearest bus stop to get to work. Like many other villages in the State, Nunem too has long been ignored by their MLAs and the governments at large, stated a press release issued by the AAP.
The AAP’s outreach on development based politics was a resounding success with the villagers.
“The residents of Nunem were delighted to hear that it was not only possible to get free 24/7 power but that this was something that AAP had already achieved under Arvind Kejriwal,” said AAP leader Dessai.
“The villagers have for too long been used as a vote bank for MLAs who have not cared at all for them. Their problems are the problems of all of rural Goa, no public transport, no jobs, days long power cuts and water problems. They are tired of the failures of the Sawant Sarkar and local MLA and see AAP as the only hope,” he added.
Is this the governance that Goenkars deserve? Is the hollow jumla of Har Ghar Jal by the Sawant Sarkar,” questioned Gaurisha.
