Amid suspense over the choice of Goa’s next Chief Minister, the BJP top leadership on Monday appointed Union Minister for Agriculture Narendra Singh Tomar and Union Minister of State for Fisheries and Animal Husbandry L. Murugan as observer and co-observer for the election of the leader of Goa’s legislative party.
According to sources, both will be holding one-on-one meetings with all the winning BJP candidates.
BJP Goa State president Sadanand Shet Tanavade told reporters in Panaji that the swearing- in of the new government was likely to take place only after the Holi festivities (March 18-19).
