In the new Goa Legislative Assembly, out of 40 members, three couples will be husband and wife. In the outgoing BJP government, Health Minister Vishwajit Rane and his wife Divya comfortably won on party tickets from Valpoi and Porim assembly seats respectively. Vishwajeet won by a margin of 8,085 votes, while Divya overtook her nearest rival by 13,943 votes.
Congress’ Michael Lobo won from Calangute, his traditional assembly constituency, while wife Delilah also won from Siolim on a Congress ticket. BJP’s Atanasio Monserrate won from Panaji, while his wife Jennifer won from Talegaon on a BJP ticket.
But Kandolkar was not so lucky, neither was the father-daughter duo of Churchill Alemao and Valanka. Kavita Kandolkar and her husband Kiran, who contested from Thivim and Aldona assembly seats as Trinamool Congress candidates, lost.
Kavita lost to BJP’s sitting MLA Nilakant Halarankar and Kiran to Congress’s Carlos Ferreira. Two other TMC candidates, Churchill Alemao, who was contesting from Benaulim, and his daughter Valanka, who was contesting from Navelim, also broke the dust.
