Days after Goa Health Minister Vishwajit Rane expressed concern over the health of Manohar Parrikar, his cabinet colleague Vijai Sardesai Sunday said the chief minister was doing fine. Sardesai, whose Goa Forward Party (GFP) is a ruling constituent in the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP)-led alliance government, also said the "projections" being made about Parrikar's health are incorrect.

"Parrikar's health is far better compared to his stay in the AIIMS in Delhi in September this year. The way the picture is being projected about his health is not true. Parrikar is much better now compared to when we had seen him after his discharge from Delhi," he told reporters.
