Panaji: A BJP leader today said the condition of Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar, undergoing treatment for a pancreatic ailment in the USA, was improving, but he would travel to his home state only after doctors allow him to.
Last week, Goa BJP general secretary Sadanand Tanavade had said that Mr Parrikar is likely to return next month.
Mr Cabral rubbished statements made recently by some Congress leaders that no medical update was being provided by the BJP-led Goa government on the condition of the former defence minister.
The MLA lost his cool when a reporter suggested that updates about Mr Parrikar's health be ideally given by a medical practitioner and not by any party leader.
A delegation of Congress leaders yesterday called on state governor Mridula Sinha at Raj Bhavan and demanded that the state government give regular updates about Parrikar's health.
He was discharged on February 22 and presented Budget in the Goa Assembly on the same day upon return.
A cabinet advisory committee, consisting of senior ministers, has been authorised to take decisions in his absence.
