Goa’s political discourse received a renewed spark as Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao called for a united and people-centered political movement during a significant gathering on Sunday. Emphasizing that “Goa comes first,” Alemao said that the state needs a fresh beginning rooted in clean, transparent, and accountable governance. He urged all opposition parties to look beyond individual interests and unite to rebuild Goa in a way that reflects the aspirations of its people.

Alemao expressed confidence that such unity would create serious concern for the ruling BJP, suggesting that a consolidated opposition could alter the political balance in the state. His remarks were made in the presence of several prominent political figures, including AICC Incharge Manikrao Thakare, GPCC President Amit Patkar, CWC Permanent Invitee Girish Chodankar, MLAs Vijai Sardesai, Carlos Ferreira, Altone D’costa, and Viresh Borkar, along with RGP chief Manoj Parab and multiple Congress block presidents. The gathering underscored a rare moment of collective intent among varied political groups in Goa, signaling a potential shift toward collaboration rather than fragmentation. As voices calling for cleaner politics grow louder, the event marked a possible turning point — one that could reshape the future of Goa’s governance.
