Nine skeletons were found at the backyard of Shree Kamaxi Homoeopathic College in Shiroda village last week by police, who have sent them for forensic examination.
Stating that he was ready to face any enquiry in the matter, Shirodkar said that the college has the relevant permission to procure cadavers from Goa Medical College(GMC), which are required for teaching.
"It's a four metre pit where we disposed off the bodies and Goa State Pollution Control Board has been inspecting the pit annually," he said.
The last body buried in the pit was in January and GSPCB officials inspected the pit in March and issued the required certificate, he pointed out.
Addressing the BJP state executive meeting yesterday, Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar had claimed that the role of Shirodkar needed to be probed after skeletons were found in the backyard of his college.
