Kejriwal said that he has an ‘elaborate plan for Goa’ and made several announcements about jobs in Goa. He further took a jibe at Goa chief minister Pramod Sawant and said ‘he’s copying what was being done in Delhi. And why vote for duplicates when one can vote for the original?’ He had said that Sawant had copied the idea of door-step delivery of services in Goa from Delhi.
Goa will undergo Assembly polls in March 2022.
