BJP Welcomes Former Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar Back Ahead of 2027 Goa Elections

Panaji, November 13 (Daily Kiran) : The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has made a significant political move ahead of the 2027 Goa Assembly elections by welcoming former Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar back into the party. Parsekar, along with his supporters and several party workers, rejoined the BJP during an event held at Atal Bhavan in Panaji.

Chief Minister Dr. Pramod Sawant, BJP Goa President Damodar (Damu) G. Naik, and other senior leaders, including Vishwajit Rane and Anil K. Antony, were present to greet him.

Dr. Sawant emphasized Parsekar’s long-standing association with the party, stating that his experience would help strengthen the organization. “We are all working together to realize the vision of a developed India. Through active participation and better coordination among workers, we aim to bolster the organization in every assembly constituency in Goa, including Mandrem, to enhance the BJP’s position before the 2027 elections,” he remarked.

Parsekar’s return is expected to provide political and organizational strength, particularly in the Mandrem area. The party anticipates that this move will increase its influence and voter base in North Goa.

Damodar G. Naik also welcomed Parsekar, highlighting the importance of his return along with numerous supporters. He expressed confidence that party workers would unite to further strengthen the BJP in Goa.

Political analysts suggest that the BJP is focusing on expanding its organization and reintegrating former leaders as part of its strategy leading up to the 2027 elections. Parsekar’s return is seen as a significant development in Goa’s political landscape. He had left the BJP in 2022 due to dissatisfaction and contested the elections as an independent candidate. Now, his rejoining is viewed as a major achievement for the BJP ahead of the upcoming elections.
