AAP, GFP Announce Alliance for 2027 Goa Assembly Polls
Arvind Kejriwal says the new alliance will be a third option against the BJP and Congress and will contest the 2027 Assembly race.
On Sunday, Aam Aadmi Party national convenor Arvind Kejriwal announced his party will contest the 2027 assembly elections in Goa in alliance with the Goa Forward Party , led by Vijai Sardesai, to oust the Bharatiya Janata Party .
Kejriwal stated the alliance aims to provide a formidable alternative for voters seeking to defeat both the Congress and the BJP, asserting that people have lacked a real choice until now.
Dubbing the new coalition 'Goa First,' Sardesai described the alliance as necessary, claiming voters have been repeatedly cheated by receiving BJP MLAs after voting for the Congress.
Kejriwal claimed many BJP members are former Congress affiliates and corrupt; Sardesai added the alliance seeks to prevent the Goans from being misled for a third time.
Assembly elections are scheduled for February or March 2027, and observers note the political landscape may be significantly influenced by upcoming Panaji City Corporation results.
