TIL Desk/ #Goa– The BJP’s bid to form governments in both Goa and #Manipur despite being runner-up has drawn criticism from the Congress party, which has accused the #SaffronParty of ‘stealing elections’. In both states, the BJP finished second in the assembly elections, but was in an advantageous position to form governments with the help of allies.
In Goa, the BJP says it has the support of 21 MLAs, the exact number needed to prove majority in the 40-member House. The Congress has 17 MLAs, followed by the BJP with 13, the #MGP (3), the #GFP (3), the# NCP (1) and Independents (3).
The BJP claims it enjoyed the support of 32 MLAs in the 60-member Manipur assembly. The Congress won 28, while the BJP bagged 21. The #NPP and the #NPF won four seats each, with the #LJP and the #TrinamoolCongress securing one seat each.
