BJP today launched their fortnight-long 'Jana Sampark Abhiyaan' in Goa, which will cover 35 constituencies ahead of the polls on March 3.

Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, Arun Jaitley flagged off the campaign from the historic Azad Maidan here.

Leader of Opposition in Goa Assembly, Manohar Parrikar would be leading the campaign.

"The Congress government's misadventures will help BJP in the coming elections," he said, adding that the "double anti incumbency" at Centre and state will work against the party.

Jaitley said BJP has provided a clear alternative for people, who are aspiring for better governance.

Parrikar said this election has given another chance for the people to liberate Goa from the misdeeds of Congress.

"There is an anti-Congress wave which is sweeping across the state and it will certainly be reflected in voting on March 3," he added.

State BJP chief Laxmikant Parsekar said, people from various sections are joining the party ahead of the elections.

"Across the state, various leaders will be joining the party in coming days," he said.
