PANJIM: The Aam Aadmi Party has been firmly reaching out to the grassroots of Goa with Arvind Kejriwal’s job guarantee.
While other party leaders are busy jumping or desperately managing their cadre, the AAP has been steadily building on its lead on solid ground work.
Party leaders in Navelim, Quepem and Pernem at the beginning of the week have been aggressively meeting the locals to hear their grievances and take the message of AAP to the grassroots, the party stated in a press release.
AAP Goa Vice President Adv Pratima Coutinho has been going house to house and meeting Navelim locals, the constituency which has been orphaned by former Congress MLA Luizinho Faleiro, who left to pursue his own personal ambitions.
Navelim locals expressed their warm support to Adv Pratima. Navelim youth are very concerned about jobs and were happy to hear that AAP was not only promising jobs but providing support till they found jobs. Many motorcycle pilots on the area have been affected as the pandemic slowed down tourism and they were supportive of Arvind Kejriwal’s plans to support those who lost work due the drop in tourism with Rs 5,000 a month.
“Goenkars have welcomed AAP with open arms wherever we go to meet them. They know that AAP is the only party on the ground standing with them” said Rahul Mhambre AAP Goa Convenor
