We will form the next government in Goa: Congress leader
"We will form the next government in Goa by taking into consideration the ideology of the party and also the interests of Goans," Chellakumar said. "I cannot reveal the time frame by which the government will be in place. Within the framework of ideology and the interest of the people, we will form the government," the Congress party leader said.
Chellakumar refused to divulge Congress's strategy to garner MLAs' support
Chellakumar, however, refused to divulge his party's strategy to garner the support of other MLAs. The Congress has 16 MLAs in the 40-member Goa Assembly. He put to rest apprehensions that the party was not united, these having risen because two of its MLAs, Jeniffer Monserratte and Philip Neri Rodrigues, are currently traveling abroad while the party is staking claim to form a government.
