Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar has been flown to New Delhi on Thursday (31 January) for a follow-up treatment at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), said a senior official in the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO), reports The New Indian Express.

Parrikar is suffering from a pancreatic ailment and has been recuperating since 14 October last year at his private residence at Dona Paul.

“The chief minister flew to Delhi at around 6 pm after the conclusion of the three-day state legislative assembly session," an official was quoted in the report as saying.


Parrikar, who was admitted to hospitals in United States, Mumbai, Delhi and Goa in 2018, chaired a Business Advisory Committee last week.

On Wednesday (30 January), Parrikar presented the Goa Budget while having a tube inside his nose and said "I am presenting the budget in 'josh'. The 'josh' that is too high, very high, and fully in 'hosh'."
