November 29, 2019 13:15

Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut announces Aghadi 2.0 for Goa. Speaking to news agency ANI, Raut said, "The Goa Forward Party president and former Deputy CM of Goa, Vijai Sardesai along with three MLAs, is forming an alliance with the Shiv Sena. A new political front is taking shape in Goa, just like it happened in Maharashtra. Jaldi hi Goa mein bhi aapko ek chamatkar dikhai dega. Very soon you will see a miracle in Goa."

Vijai Sardesai of the Goa Forward Party said, "Governments don't change after making announcements. It happens suddenly. What happened in Maharashtra, should be done in Goa too. Opposition should come together. We met Sanjay Raut. The 'Maha Vikas Aghadi' which has been formed, should extend to Goa too."

The move ties in with Raut's statement yesterday. Raut said that the swearing-in of Uddhav Thackeray as Maharashtra chief minister will affect the national politics.

"What is going to happen in Maharashtra will affect national politics. Maharashtra is a state which influences the politics of the entire country," Raut told media persons ahead of Thackeray's scheduled oath-taking ceremony.He alleged that BJP used all tactics to prevent Sena from forming the government.

"From President House to Governor and ED to CBI -- everything was used," the Sena leader said, adding that the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress government will complete its full term.
