New Delhi: A long time MLA from Goa’s Sanquelim constituency, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Pramod Sawant, won the seat in 2022 with a marginal limit.

He is the 13th chief minister of Goa and most likely BJP’s CM candidate for Goa Assembly Elections 2022. 

Sawant succeeded the CM seat in 2019 after the death of veteran leader late Manohar Parrikar

The BJP leader also served as the spokesperson of the Goa unit of the saffron party. Later in 2017, he was re-elected to the Goa Legislative Assembly from the same constituency and on 22 March 2017, he was elected as the Speaker of the Goa Legislative Assembly.

Sawant, who enjoys massive popularity and is regarded as an unassuming MLA by his constituents, won two terms without any former electoral career. 

Sawant represents a vital Sanquelim seat and is eyeing to win the seat he has held since 2012 while challenging him is Congress’ Saglani, Aam Aadmi Party’s Manojkumar Ghadi and MGP’s Mahadev Khandekar.

The seat holds great significance as all key champions including Home Minister Amit Shah and Rahul Gandhi both campaigned in the constituency.
