PANJIM: While declaring that he himself will contest the Lok Sabha polls from North Goa on his party ticket, former deputy chief minister Dayanand Narvekar said that he had received as many as 46 applications for the South Goa Lok Sabha seat.
Addressing a press conference, a dazed looking and sometimes incoherent Narvekar, who laboured on to disclose his past association with Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi said the Congress will win only around 75 seats in the Lok Sabha. He said his new party the Goa Democratic Front would flag secularism, unemployment as well as the dole being dished out by successive governments as main poll planks.
He used the opportunity to hit out at the ruling BJP for what he said were cooked up numbers for the Narendra Modi rally.
“Today with technology you can do anything. If there are 10,000 people for your rally you can say there were two-lakh,” he said.
