The party\u2019s two large public meetings in Xeldem and Colva have further boosted momentum, drawing massive crowds and strong public response.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">AAP MLAs have been aggressively campaigning, taking their work and the party\u2019s vision of corruption-free governance, no gundaraj and priority to free, quality healthcare directly to households. On Thursday morning, AAP MLA Engr. Cruz Silva led an intensive door-to-door campaign in the Velim ZP seat, accompanied by the ZP candidate and Atishi.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-108430\" src=\"https:\/\/goakhabar-com.preview.jikut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/69512-300x288.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/69512-300x288.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/69512-768x737.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/69512.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">Speaking during the campaign, AAP Goa In-Charge Atishi said, \u201cWe have been campaigning very seriously and our candidates are receiving an extremely encouraging response. The way AAP has taken on the BJP on every issue \u2014 corruption, gundaraj, healthcare and livelihoods \u2014 clearly shows that AAP is serious about defeating the BJP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">She further added, \u201cSo far, AAP has knocked on 1,90,000 doors across Goa. In Salcette, the intensity of door-to-door campaigning has been very high, with multiple rounds in several areas. The way people are welcoming us shows that Goans have accepted AAP as the only credible opposition to the BJP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">AAP MLA Engr. Cruz Silva said voters are choosing work over distractions. \u201cPeople of Goa, especially in Velim, will ignore all the noise and so-called friendly fights. They will vote for the work done on the ground in the last 3.5 years.

Venzy Viegas, speaking about Benaulim and Colva, said, \u201cThe work done by AAP in Benaulim is a symbol of our commitment to public service. Free clinics, health camps and standing with people when the government failed them \u2014 this is AAP\u2019s politics. The people of Benaulim and Colva will strengthen this work by voting for Jhadu and electing honest representatives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">AAP Working President Gerson Gomes, who is personally overseeing the Navelim campaign, strongly attacked the BJP\u2013Congress nexus.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">\u201cIn Navelim, the Congress candidate is effectively a BJP candidate. This is BJP\u2013Congress familyraj being pushed on the people. Navelim voters understand this betrayal. They will reject this alliance and vote for Jhadu, electing Beatris D\u2019Souza, a working middle-class woman who truly represents the people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">AAP stated that its final phase of campaigning in Salcette is focused on direct public engagement, accountability and people-first politics, as the party enters polling day with strong grassroots support and growing confidence across the constituency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Goa Khabar : With just two days left for polling, the Aam Aadmi Party has intensified its campaign across Salcette, giving a decisive final push in Navelim, Raia, Velim and Colva.
