Goa political situation: BJP's allies want solution

September 17, 2018 21:04

Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party and Goa Forward Party allies of the ruling BJP in Goa, on Monday said they were awaiting a solution to the political situation arising out of the indisposition of Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar.

MGP chief Deepak Dhavalikar said a "common solution", in sync with "what the allies have been requesting", should come from the BJP as it was the single largest party in ruling alliance.

GFP president Vijai Sardesai also said that his party was waiting for a solution, which is permanent rather than "ad hoc".

"We are waiting for the future course of action as now all the pros and cons of the situation are known well to the BJP national leadership," Sardesai, who is also state agriculture minister, said.

He appreciated BJP national president Amit Shah for promptly deputing central observers to listen to allies in connection with the political situation.

Parrikar is currently recuperating in the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi and three observers from the BJP were in the coastal state to take stock of the political situation in view of his indisposition.
