This is the first time Kharge will address party workers in Goa after taking charge as the Congress national president
Panaji: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge will visit Goa on Monday and address party workers in the coastal state, a state party leader said on Sunday. The meeting is important as the Congress is gearing up for the Goa assembly election due early next year, state party chief Girish Chodankar told PTI.
He said Kharge would be on a day-long visit to the state on Monday and address the party workers at Verna village in South Goa.
This is the first time Kharge will address party workers in Goa after taking charge as the Congress national president, he added.
In the 40-member Goa assembly, the Congress currently has three MLAs, including Leader of the Opposition Yuri Alemao. The Congress had won 11 seats in the 2022 Goa elections, but later, eight of its MLAs switched to the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party.
