Delay in announcement of candidature made us anxious: Viriato

The delay in declaration of Congress candidates, after both the seats were allotted to the party as part of the INDIA bloc, led to some anxious moments for the party supporters. “They were getting worried. The fear was that the anger of the people, because of the delay, may go in a direction where we won’t be able to even go to them. But, like leader of opposition Yuri Alemao said, the delay, anxiety, and the abuses on social media, could also mean that people want the Congress candidate and turn into a positive wave. That is exactly what has happened,” Capt Viriato said.
