Panaji: Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Thursday announced its fourth list of candidates for the single-phase Goa assembly elections, with yet the last list of candidates expected on Friday morning. The party has nominated former legislator Victor Gonsalves to stand for elections from Santa Cruz, while Mahesh Bhandari has been given the ticket for Dabolim constituency. Gonsalves, the former state Congress general secretary, joined TMC after resigning from Congress on January 13. After resigning from Congress, Gonsalves blamed the leadership for his decision, saying that the party has betrayed the trust of its supporters and workers. Meanwhile, Rajya Sabha MP Luizinho Faleiro sought to allay the fears of his supporters, saying that “rumours of my resignation from TMC are false, mischievous and malicious”. “The party feels these are desperate tactics by those who are afraid,” said TMC functionary Kiran Kandolkar
