Trinamool Congress leader Derek O'Brien on Saturday said his party would be contesting the next year's Goa Assembly polls.

The party will announce its Chief Ministerial candidate soon, he added.

"We are here as a serious contender against the ruling BJP," the MP told PTI.

The Mamata Banerjee-led party has no "high-command culture" and will pick credible local leaders in the coastal state, he said.
