CANACONA: The Congress workers have stepped up their campaigning in Canacona taluka, with different groups heading in different directions to reach out to the electorate requesting them to elect their party candidate, Reginaldo Lourenco.
Since the last two days, Canacona Municipal Council (CMC) Chairperson Mahadev Desai, Congress Block President Elvis Fernandes, former minister Isidore Fernandes, Daya Pagui and Janardhan Bhandari are leading different groups to cover maximum area in the taluka.
“The move is to meet maximum people in the constituency and convince them to attend public meeting at Chaudi on Saturday,” informed Elvis Fernandes.
Speaking to Herald, Isidore Fernandes said the Congressmen have so far covered Cotigao, Gaondongrim and Shristhal, where they met the locals and organised several corner meetings.
“The response is overwhelming, as people are fed up with BJP’s revengeful politics and are all eagerly waiting to express their anger on April 12,” said Isidore.
On Tuesday, Isidore Fernandes, Janardhan Bhandari and Elvis Fernandes visited Agonda and organised a series of meetings in the village till late evening.
Pagui, CMC Chairperson Dessai, Councillor Ratnakar Dhuri who were meeting electorate in municipal region, were later busy organising a corner meeting at Galgibaga late Tuesday evening.
“Our dedicated workers are also covering various areas at Poinguinim and Loliem,” Fernandes told Herald.
Pagui said they are covering all the 52 polling booth areas before Saturday’s public meeting, which will be addressed by Congress candidate Lourenco and top Congress leaders.
