PANAJI: Dr Pramod Sawant today resigned from the post of Chief Minister. The new state government is mostly to be formed next week.
The resignation was submitted to Goa Governor P.S Sreedharan Pillai.
“With blessings of the people of Goa, the BJP is once again going to form the government in the state which will work on the principles of Antyodaya,” said CM Sawant.
He further said that Goa will continue to prosper with the Double Engine Sarkar under the dynamic leadership of PM Modi.
“Governor has appointed me as the caretaker CM until the further process,” he said.
Sawant said that decision to swearing-in in four states has not been taken yet.
“After Central Observer comes, Legislative Party meeting will be held & dates will be decided,” he says.
After the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) made a landslide victory in Goa, members of the Central Parliamentary Board or central observers will reach the state today and hold a meeting with all the 20 elected MLAs.
The leader of the Goa Legislature Party will be elected unanimously in this meeting.
Union Ministers Nitin Gadkari or Piyush Goyal may arrive as central observers in Goa from Delhi on behalf of the Central Parliamentary Board in the legislative party meeting.
