BJP Leader Sadanand Shet Tanwade has strongly criticized Captain Viriato for his recent remarks regarding the Indian Constitution. Tanwade labeled Viriato’s comments as an affront to the legacies of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru.

Additionally, Tanwade highlighted Viriato’s previous objection to hoisting the flag on Goa’s Sao Jacinto island, casting doubt on Viriato’s stance on important national matters.
