We don&#8217;t want excuses, we want results,&#8221; Lamba said during press conference at Congress House, Panaji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She revealed that in the last 4 years alone, 922 cases of crimes against women, including rapes and molestations, have been registered in Goa. This is the reality of BJP&#8217;s &#8216;Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao&#8217;.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"340\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/07.10.2026-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-115771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/07.10.2026-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/07.10.2026-1-265x300.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Media and Communication Chairman Amarnath Panjikar, Goa Pradesh Mahila President Dr. Pratiksha Khalap, President, General Secretary Adv. and others were present.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congress leader asked ten questions to BJP government, including unemployment, cash for job, drugs and organised crimes, land conversions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Can a woman move freely in BJP&#8217;s Goa today? This government which chants Beti Bachao has made Goa unsafe for our daughters,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Slamming the Cash-for-Jobs scam, she said, &#8220;This is a government that sells jobs. Their own BJP ministers have accused their own government of a job scam. Deserving Goan youth are rejected and jobs are sold to the highest bidder. This government has destroyed the future of Goan youth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;BJP is the biggest threat to democracy. They steal everything &#8211; They steal MLAs, they steal party symbols, they steal votes through Vote-Chori and they steal money through Electoral Bond Chori,&#8221; Lamba said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She said Goa, once known for peace and culture, has become the crime and drugs capital under BJP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Where are the convictions in narcotics cases? You catch drugs for headlines and then protect the peddlers. Whom is this government protecting? This government is hand-in-glove with the drug mafia,&#8221; she charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quoting the CAG report, she said, &#8220;CAG has black and white said that corruption has taken place in this government. This is not a government, this is a &#8216;Chor Sarkar&#8217; that has looted public money.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;This is Jamin-Chor, Vote-Chor, Chanda-Chor and Paper-Chor Sarkar. If we don&#8217;t stop them now, they will steal the very soul of Goa. We have to stop this environmental destruction and save our Goan heritage,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lamba said even tourism is destroyed and quality of life of Goans has collapsed. &#8220;What have Goans got in 10 years except inflation, crime and unemployment?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drawing a parallel to Prajwal Revanna case, she said, &#8220;In BJP&#8217;s double-engine, rapists don&#8217;t get punishment, they get parole. In Goa, we have seen Prajwal Revanna Part-2. The accused, son of a BJP leader, is roaming scot-free. In our Congress government in Karnataka, we put Revanna behind bars. That is the difference between Congress and BJP.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lamba asserted that Congress will not be intimidated by BJP&#8217;s vendetta politics.&#8221;We welcome the FIR on our leader Rahul Gandhi for protesting against Vote-Chori in Delhi.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He is fighting to save democracy. BJP&#8217;s women leaders should ask their own leadership &#8211; what have you done when 922 of our sisters were assaulted?&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She called upon Goans to take a pledge to make Goa crime-free and drug-free.&#8221; Time to throw out this Double-Engine failure,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Goa Khabar: Launching a scathing attack on the BJP, All India Mahila Congress President Alka Lamba today exposed the total failure of the double-engine government in Goa and said that after 10 years in power, BJP has no right to give excuses, it must give answers. &#8220;We don&#8217;t want your &#8216;Mann Ki Baat&#8217;, we want [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25169,"featured_media":115770,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[155,6],"tags":[3794,38],"class_list":["post-115769","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-155","category-6","tag-featured","tag-goa"],"read":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115769","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/25169"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=115769"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115769\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":115772,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115769\/revisions\/115772"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/115770"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=115769"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=115769"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=115769"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
