Goa Khabar : The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has intensified its statewide campaign against dilapidated roads with the successful collection of 50 Thousand citizen signatures under its ‘ BJPche Burak ’ initiative. The party announced that it aims to reach a total of 1 lakh signatures, after which the compiled petitions will be formally submitted to the Chief Minister in the days ahead.
AAP State General Secretary Shrikrishna Parab and Joint-Secretary Poojan Malvankar, speaking at a press conference, emphasized that the campaign seeks to mount pressure on the government to urgently repair Goa’s pothole-ridden road network. The party stated that this initiative is crucial for providing relief to thousands of Goans who face daily hardships due to unsafe and damaged roads.
As part of the ongoing drive, AAP volunteers have gone door-to-door in all constituencies, gathering signatures and listening to public grievances. Many citizens voiced their anger at the government’s inaction, highlighting how students and working professionals alike are forced to endure distress and delays during their commutes. The leaders underlined that poor road conditions have not only caused inconvenience but have also led to accidents and fatalities, further fueling public outrage.
“The spirit of the people is firmly against the government’s neglect. The mounting anger and sharp criticism expressed during our campaign will be conveyed directly to the authorities. We are committed to ensuring that the government is compelled to repair these hazardous roads without further delay,” said Shrikrishna Parab.
Further, Parab and Malvankar accused the government of neglecting essential services and public welfare, alleging that it is instead “preoccupied with fostering Gundaraj in the state .” They criticized the administration for failing to provide basic amenities and adequate healthcare services to common citizens.
Highlighting the need for urgent action, Malvankar pointed out that Goa’s reputation as a premier tourist destination is suffering due to the poor state of its roads, which are drawing complaints from the large number of visiting tourists. “Despite grand promises, the government has failed to act in the public interest,” Malvankar concluded.
