BJP president Amit Shah will meet in Delhi Wednesday the leaders of the key constituents of his party-led coalition government in Goa to discuss the political situation in the coastal state, a minister said on a day two Congress MLAs resigned and were set to join the saffron party.
Besides Goa Forward Party (GFP) chief Vijai Sardesai, Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party (MGP) leader Sudin Dhavalikar will participate in the meeting.
In a setback to the Congress, two of its 16 MLAs in the coastal state -- Dayanand Sopte and Subhash Shirodkar -- resigned as members of the House as also from the primary membership of the party Tuesday. Both of them are set to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Town and Country Planning Minister Sardesai had Monday said, "With or without Manohar Parrikar as the chief minister, the state government should complete its term."
