PANJIM: Bicholim’s independent MLA Naresh Sawal laid to rest the controversy kicked up by Congress’ Valpoi MLA saying he does not intend joining the national party.
Vishwajit at a meeting in Mayem had claimed that Naresh Sawal would be the best bet for the Bicholim seat as he is young, dynamic and a good human being.
Speaking to Herald, Sawal said, “I have nothing to say as I have no intention of joining the Congress. I have said it a number of times and will reiterate, I don’t want to join Congress.”
Asked to comment on Vishwajit’s statement that he would support Sawal in Bicholim, he said, “If someone is voluntarily supporting me, why would I say no? Maybe Vishwajit wants to finance me for the elections and he is welcome.”
