Panaji: The rift in the BJP-MGP alliance in Goa widened after Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar today criticised MGP leader and State Transport minister Sudin Dhavalikar over his outburst against the state government and said those unhappy are free to quit.
“Sudin Dhavalikar is no one to set the agenda for me.If he feels suffocated in the state government, he should resign and go, and then make a public statement against us,” Parsekar told reporters here.
The Chief Minister was reacting to the statement by Dhavalikar accusing him (CM) of taking the state ten years backward during his rule of two-and-half years.
MGP has already announced that they will not forge an alliance with BJP for the upcoming State Legislative Assembly polls if Parsekar continues to head the BJP legislative party.
In turn, Parsekar today accused MGP of not being loyal to the alliance partners.
