Parrikar urges Guv to dismiss Kamat government

Panaji, July 30 (UNI) Reiterating his demand for ''outright dismissal'' of Digambar Kamat-led government in Goa, Leader of the Opposition Manohar Parrikar alleged that everything was ''manipulated'' in the Legislative Assembly to save the ''minority'' government.

He, along with BJP national General-Secretary Rajiv Pratap Rudy, told mediapersons late tonight after meeting the Governor the second time, that he would ''tap all doors, including the Supreme Court and the President of India, for getting justice'' to the Goa Democratic Alliance.

Presenting a copy of today's proceedings of the House to the Governor, Mr Parrikar told him that the Speaker failed to abide by the former's directive.

The Governor told him that he would look into the proceedings besides, the report of the Speaker on the outcome of the House before taking further decision on the opposition charges.

Meanwhile, the Chief Minister, along with all the Congress legislators called on the Governor this evening to appraise the latter of the developments in the House and its outcome.

Mr Kamat had reportedly told the Governor that he had acted as per the directives of the latter by seeking a vote of confidence through the trial of strength on the floor of the House before transacting other business as per schedule.
