JoeAdds: (how about..) 8. Re start of bull-fights 9. DVC code-Part II (if any) 10. Re-opening of Fatrade Gold Biscuits chase/Case just to find out where all the biscuits gone? 11. TV-Sting operation and MPLAD funds How many seats the SGF would win? I am confident of winning a majority of seats in Goa and that is the reason why I have resigned. You wait and watch the assembly results JoeSays: Churchill lost Benaulim (his home) assembly seat in 2002, inspite of his defeat, the Congress gave him ticket to contest the Lok Sabha election in 2004 (if not, his political career would have been over by now). If congress was so bad, I wonder what made him to take so long to leave Congress? I mean, why he kept on delaying? "We still do not understand from whom Mr. Alemao is trying to save Goa.
