Congress demands Goa CM's resignation over British national's rape

Panaji, Dec 21 (UNI) The opposition Congress in Goa on Friday demanded resignation of state Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar over the issue of rape of a British national at Palolem beach in South Goa on Thursday.
Speaking to reporters, Goa Mahila Congress President Pratima Coutinho said,''The CM of Goa is missing. He is not keeping good health. He is not ready to distribute portfolios. He is holding 38 ministries and he is not even willing to distribute them. He is the home minister of Goa and molestation, rapes are increasing day by day.''
"The BJP government has finished mining in Goa. The tourism industry which is the main source of economy, is facing a setback with these rapes and such incidents. Every year we see foreign nationals raped and molested. How can we expect foreign tourists come to Goa? High Time CM Parrikar resigns or gives his portfolios to other minister," she said.
