The Aam Aadmi Party and Goa Forward Party have joined forces under the banner 'Goa First' to contest the 2027 Goa assembly polls, offering voters a non-BJP, non-Congress alternative.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Goa Forward Party (GFP) announced a pre‑poll alliance named 'Goa First' ahead of the 2027 Goa assembly elections.
The partnership aims to present voters with a clear alternative to the BJP and Congress, which have dominated the state's politics for decades.
AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal said the alliance would form the next government in Goa if it secures a majority. Both parties also discussed lessons learned from recent Rajya Sabha MP defections, emphasizing the need for stronger internal discipline. The alliance will contest all 40 seats in the state assembly under the 'Goa First' banner.
