Shiv Sena’s Goa unit on Sunday ruled out joining hands with BJP or Congress for the state Legislative Assembly polls, due before March 2017, and expressed willingness to have alliance with “parties like Goa Forward”.

“Our priority is to have pre-poll alliance with parties like Goa Forward. The independent MLAs mentoring the party are taking up genuine issues of the people,” Shiv Sena Goa unit chief Sudip Tamankar told reporters inn Panaji. “Sena will not have any alliance with BJP or Congress in the Assembly election as both the parties were responsible for ruining the coastal state.”

According to Tamankar, BJP rode to victory in 2012 Goa polls on various promises which it has failed to fulfil.

“They cheated on the issue of casino shifting from (the Mandovi) river. They (BJP) are not different from the Congress which failed to keep up the promises and on the other hand went on looting people,” he alleged.
