My Weekend

Join a stucco art class or listen to Lok Sabha election results’ analysis

GT Digital

This Sunday, you can choose to listen to an analysis of the recent Lok Sabha election results, or if you’re a kid, you can unleash your artistic side at a Stucco-inspired workshop.

ANALYSIS OF LOK SABHA ELECTION RESULTS

The Lok Sabha election results were out earlier this month. In Goa, both the BJP as well as the Congress party retained their seats. Was the BJP’s lead of 1.16 lakh in North Goa unexpected?

Did Congress scrape through in the South with a mere lead of 14,000 votes against the new woman face of the BJP? Is South Goa still a bastion of the Congress? Is the BJP unbeatable in the North?

Listen to the analysis of the recent Lok Sabha election results by veteran journalist and author, Sandesh Prabhudesai, in light of his new book Double Engine: History of Goa Lok Sabha Elections.

Sandesh will be interviewed by political activist Trajano D’Mello, who has played an active role on Goa’s political turf for over four decades – for the Janata Party, BJP, Goa Congress, Rajiv Congress, NCP, Congress, AAP and now, the TMC.

Both experts will analyse today’s political situation while also digging into the history with a perspective. It will be followed by an audience interaction.
