Sonia congratulates Kamat on Mormugao victory
Press Trust Of India Panaji, November 03, 2007 Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Panaji called Goa Chief Minister Digamber Kamat to congratulate him for the party's victory in Mormugao Lok Sabha bypoll. "Just now I got a call from Sonia Gandhi congratulating me for the victory. This is a victory of all the party workers who worked overtime," Kamat told mediapersons outside the counting station in Margao town on Saturday.

Kamat also lauded its alliance partner Nationalistic Congress Party (NCP) for their share in the campaigning. "NCP leaders campaigned with us throughout, which anointed our victory," he said. Though he did not comment directly on other two alliance partners -- Save Goa Front (SGF) and Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party (MGP) who had declared their support to the Congress candidate. "I presume everyone worked for us and that is why the Congress got victorious," he mentioned. http://www.hindustantimes.com/StoryPage/StoryPage.aspx?id=51558e74-c7f2-4764-924a-0655cd634d62&&Headline=Sonia+congratulates+Kamat+on+Mormugao+victory Sanny de Quepem <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
