Manoj Parab to rejoin Revolutionary Goans on November 22
The former president's return follows a period of factionalism and a deferred rejoining date originally set for October 2.
Manoj Parab, the founder and former president of the Revolutionary Goans (RG), will rejoin the party on November 22, according to Vishvesh Naik of the RG.
The rejoining date was previously scheduled for October 2 but has been deferred. Parab had resigned from his post and the party in May 2026.
His exit highlighted a factional feud with the party's lone MLA, Viresh Borkar. The Borkar faction has entered alliance talks with the Congress, including discussions on seat sharing, according to The Times of India.
While Naik acknowledged the split, he stated that the core principles of the RG, such as protecting Goa's land and fighting land scams, remain unchanged. RG member Ajay Kholkar said the party needs Parab with elections approaching.
Kholkar also noted that while Parab had been a hurdle for some members, that group is no longer part of the RG. Functionaries said the return was finalised after several meetings.
In the 2022 assembly elections, the RG contested 38 of the 40 seats and polled nearly 10 per cent of the vote share.
