After a Twitter spat with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over a controversial railway project, Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Friday, taunted a top Maharashtra government bureaucrat, making comparisons between Covid management efforts in Goa and its neighbouring state.

Speaking at a function organised in Panaji to launch a new Marathi news channel 'Goan Varta', Sawant, who was sharing a dais with Maharashtra government's Director General for Information and Public Relations DD Pandharpatte, said that public functions could be organised in Goa due to good Covid-19 management practices, unlike in Maharashtra.
