BJP's Pramod Sawant resigned as Chief Minister of Goa today as the party prepares to form a government for the third consecutive time. The BJP emerged as the single largest party in the state (winning 20 out of 40 seats) as results for the assembly elections were declared on Friday; it also secured the support of a key regional player, the Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party (MGP), and three Independent MLAs.
