Goa Assembly elections 2022 LIVE: PM wishes Sawant; Priyanka has a message
Elections to all 40 Assembly constituencies in Goa is underway. Besides the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Congress, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Trinamool Congress (TMC) are key contenders this election.
Capital Panaji has turned into a keenly watched political battle that is witnessing a triangular fight among BJP leader Atanasio Monserrate, independent candidate Utpal Parrikar and Congress’ Elvis Gomes.
Utpal, a former leader of the BJP, quit the saffron party last month after he was not named as the candidate from Panaji, a seat which was represented by his father and former Goa chief minister Manohar Parrikar.

People are going to vote for future,” said Lobo.
