General secretary of the state Congress party
Vijay Bhike extended the invitation to all political parties and citizens of all religions to attend the Congress party’s celebrations.
“The Congress organisation was formed prior to India’s Independence and during the freedom movement to protect our country. The credit of the party’s success goes to the people, leaders and the secular parties who supported the Congress. Our workers selflessly work for the party, even spending from their own pocket, to fulfill the responsibilities entrusted upon them, ” he said.
“In the past 12 years, we have seen that the state has headed in the wrong direction, how the youth are taking the wrong path. We pray for the good of our people, for their development, for the peace of the state, for tackling illegalities, and good things in the new year,” he said.
North Goa district president Virendra Shirodkar, Block presidents and other party workers were also present.
