Panaji, Jul 13: MLA of Panaji, Monserrate has said that he still demands to remove offshore casinos from Mandovi though the process may take more than hundred days the duration that he had promised earlier. He was speaking to reporters on Friday after he returned from Delhi.
He assured that he will stand by his promises made before the elections. He said that all the offshore casinos will be moved out of river Mandovi if Congress party wins the Panaji by-election and forms the government.
Chief minister Pramod Sawant had said in June that the casinos will be shifted to land as shutting them down will be discouraging to investors.
Monserrate had won in Panaji assembly constituency on Congress ticket. Among his poll promises were government jobs to each household, uninterrupted water supply, solutions to municipal market issue and garbage issue.
