Yuri Alemao, son of former Cuncolim MLA Joaquim Alemao, was on Sunday inducted into the Goa Forward Party, giving a new dimension to the politics of the Cuncolim constituency. The function to induct Yuri Alemao into the GPF was held at Cuncolim, where GPF leaders took potshots at incumbent MLA Clafasio Dias and the Congress. Welcoming Alemao into the party, GFP supremo Vijai Sardesai said, “The Chieftains’ Revolt (of Cuncolim) was the first major revolt against the foreign rule… we will ensure that its history is put in (school) textbooks.” Busloads of supporters from Chandor and Macazana as well as past and present members of village panchayats of Guirdolim, Chandor, Paroda, Ambaulim and the Cuncolim municipal council attended the function.
