SGF is a regional party and has formed only due to internal fights & conflicts between SGF chief and some congressman. while on other hand BJP is National party and has spread its roots in entire nation. SGF itself is a 2 (or may be 3 in future) member party in Goa assembly which has got no clear agenda and i doubt whether it will survive next 5 years as a party( coz chances of merging it with other party are very high). Anyways parties are just the tools for contesting elections, and for that matter elections can be contested independently and won, take the example of 2 independent MLA's who won in recent elections with a good margin. Now giving good governance depends on person, and Parrikar is the lone person who can do so atleast in Goa. Changing parties doesn't change the attitude and behaviour of the person, coz moserrate, madkaikar, dhavalikar, kamat have changed their parties and from those some have changes parties like clothes, every elections, but that hasn't changed them, they are still the same person with same attitude(some dont even have that). Even If Mr. Parrikar joins any other party, his way of working the govt. will remain same, he's capable leader and handles the situation much better then anyone else in 40 member house. But the question in such situation will be, whether the other MLA's in that other particular party will support Mr. Parrikar in his good givings to Goa or not. The party in which Mr. Parrikar is, is the most stable party among all parties in Goa with no internal conflicts like Congress. Taking that into account Parrikar can serve Goa well rather than joining other parties. And lastly it will also take some time for Mr.Parrikar to settle down if incase he joins other party, to get familiar with those circumstances and with the nature of their MLA's. Lastly, if you aware, just have a walk to Mr. Parrikar's constituency and see. You'll see more Goans in his constituency then other Urban cities in Goa..example. Vasco, Margao, Ponda which are highly populated with Non-Goans. And for that matter non-BJP constituencies are the one which are mostly crowded with Non-Goans. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Confidentiality Notice : This e-mail and any attachments are confidential to the addressee and may also be privileged.
