Herald: What according to you is the reason for the loss?
Furtado: I have nothing to say. The people of Panjim cast their votes and I accept the result. I have done my best. I met people house-to-house. It is for the media to find out what went wrong. I wish the incoming MLA and the citizens all the best.
Herald: Is this a wave against the party?
Furtado:I don’t want to comment. Most of the Congress workers worked for me, whether honestly or dishonestly you (media) have to find out.
Herald: Congress’ Atanasio Monserrate had declared he will support BJP. What is your take on this?
Furtado:I don’t want to comment on Babush. I wish him all the best.
Herald: What is your future course of action? Will you contest 2017 State Assembly Elections?
Furtado: Let us cross that bridge when it comes. Let me assure you, I will continue the good work for my ward Miramar and the city. I will work rigorously.
‘I accept the result’
