Panaji: Mandrem MLA and MGP leader Jit Arolkar said that he is qualified to contest for the post of party president.
“I have completed three and half years as a member of the party. What yo require is three years to be qualified for it,” he said.
Arolkar said that Dhavalikars had taken over the reigns of the party since there was no one from Bahujan Samaj then to take the responsibility.
“Now, the central committee has to decide on the presidential post,” he said, when asked whether he is interested to lead the party.
Arolkar said that if central committee decides and if Sudin Dhavalikar wants, he is ready to take the responsibility.
DHAVALIKARS NEED NOT TAKE ME TO DELHI
