Faleiro was addressing the gathering on the occasion of people awareness seminar organised by Goa Pradesh Congress Committee at Vividha hall in Navelim, Bicholim.
Speaking further, Faleiro came down heavily on the government and told that the government is trying to fool the people. “They have increased the prices of everything and also imposed heavy burden on the people in the form of indirect taxes. The worst affected are the people from the mining areas and in spite of BJP government at the centre they are unable to solve the issue,” he stated.
The Opposition Leader, Pratapsing Rane, said the existing government has taken a U-turn in terms of development issues. Adding that development of Sanquelim was undertaken only by the Congress party in the past, he accused the local MLA, Dr Pramod Sawant of not co-operating with SMC as far as development of SMC area is concerned.
Congress leader, Ravi Naik, Mahila president, Sunita Verekar, ex-Sanquelim MLA, Pratap Gawas, SMC Chairperson Dharmesh Saglani and various other office bearers were present for the meeting.
