Shiv Sena is gearing up to contest the upcoming Goa Assembly elections independently, planning to field candidates across 21 constituencies without entering into any alliance. According to party leaders, a final decision regarding candidate selection and overall strategy will be taken in an official meeting with Chief Minister Eknath Shinde scheduled for September 22. The party is aggressively expanding its footprint, with a strong focus on the Ponda taluka where ground-level workers are actively strengthening booth-level structures.

Demonstrating its growing public engagement ahead of the polls, Shiv Sena recently organized a Dahi Handi event in Ponda, which drew a large crowd and showed significant public support. Party leaders view this strong turnout as a clear indicator of their expanding base in the region as they prepare their organization to go all-in on their solo election campaign.
