Utpal Parrikar, who is in his father Manohar Parrikar's party BJP, is reportedly upset over hints that the party plans to field former minister Atanasio "Babush" Monserrate from Panaji, the seat held by his father for 25 years.
Non-BJP parties must support Manohar Parrikar's son Utpal Parrikar if he contests next month's Goa election, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut appealed today in a tweet, calling it a "true tribute" to the BJP veteran. If #UtpalParrikar contests Independent frm Panaji seat,I propose all non-BJP parties including @AamAadmiParty@INCIndia@AITCofficial@Goaforwardparty shd support his candidature & not field a candidate against him.This will be a true tribute to ManoharBhai!#Goapic.twitter.com/q0w96MxZk9
Utpal Parrikar, who is in his father's party BJP, is reportedly upset over hints that the party plans to field former minister Atanasio "Babush" Monserrate from Panaji, the seat held by Manohar Parrikar for 25 years. He has talked about contesting as an independent candidate, if it comes to that.
"If Utpal Parrikar contests Independent from Panaji seat, I propose all non-BJP parties including Aam Aadmi Party, Congress, Trinamool Congress and Goa Forward Party should support his candidature and not field a candidate against him. This will be a true tribute to ManoharBhai!," Sanjay Raut tweeted this morning.
