The Goa Congress chief alleged that the BJP think-tank had launched "another team" in the form of the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool to break the Congress vote.
Taking a dig at the Trinamool Congress, Goa Congress chief Girish Chodankar on Sunday said there are more hoardings of the party in the state than members and alleged that the BJP think-tank had launched "another team" in the form of the Mamata Banerjee-led party to break the Congress vote.
Hitting out at the Trinamool and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Mr Chodankar also asserted that "Goa will be governed from Goa, not West Bengal or Delhi".
"Right now their (Trinamool) hoardings show only Mamata Banerjee. I don't know what Mamata Banerjee will do in Goa? AAP only shows (Arvind) Kejriwal, what does he have to do in Goa? Goa cannot be run by people from Bengal or Delhi, Goa has to be run from Goa," the Goa Congress chief told news agency PTI in an interview.
Asked about the entry of the Trinamool into Goa ahead of the assembly elections next year, Mr Chodankar said they had made attempts earlier also but "went back".
