'Realignment' on cards? Congress keeps door open for Kejriwal's Goa ally GFP
Will Arvind Kejriwal reconsider his plan to form a non-BJP, non-Congress alliance in Goa with the Goa Forward Party (GFP)? The possibility has been raised after GFP chief Vijai Sardesai suggested a "realignment" was open to discussion. Congress Goa incharge Manickrao Thakare also indicated that the party is not ruled out an alliance with GFP.
Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and GFP announced their "Goa First" pre-poll alliance for the 2027 Goa assembly elections, positioning themselves as an alternative to the BJP and Congress. Kejriwal claimed the BJP would not secure a majority in the upcoming elections and said the "Goa First" alliance would form the next government.
AAP vowed to learn from past mistakes after several of its Rajya Sabha members joined the BJP and pledged to select candidates more carefully. The alliance is being marketed as an option for voters dissatisfied with the BJP and Congress.
