India, Jan. 1 -- During the last Assembly elections, the MGP and we were 'Dushman', but after the elections, they became our alliance partners and were included in the Cabinet, Damu Naik, Goa State BJP President told media on Thursday. He was speaking after being questioned how the BJP took support of MGP ZP members after the elections. The Government and party are different. An elected representative cannot be sidelined just because he is not from our party. In a democracy, every elected leader has equal rights, Naik said.
