Triangular fight for Saligao zilla panchayat today
TNN | Sep 9, 2012, 03.34AM IST
MAPUSA: The zilla panchayat bye-election to the Saligao constituency
to be held on September 9 will witness a triangular fight between
BJP-supported Prkash Naik, Congress-backed Ongus Menezes and a
advocate from Parra, Harishchandra Sirsat. The seat fell vacant after
former Saligao ZP member Michael Lobo successfully contested the
assembly elections from Calangute and won in March this year.
Ongus Menezes, former sarpanch of the Gurim village panchayat, is
supported by the former chief minister Dr Wilfred de Souza and his son
in-law Tulio de Souza. Sirsat is a new face in the political circle.
During the previous ZP election the voting percentage was 84% for this
cosnsstituency. The Saligao ZP constituency comprises of five villages
Guirim, Sangolda, Parra, Arpora and Saligao. Political observers say
that it will be a smooth sailing for the BJP-supported candidate
Prakash Naik as the state is ruled by the BJP-led government.
