The Digambar Kamat government
will be stable till I am the minister, said newly sworn in minister Churchill
Alemao yesterday, after he was administered oath of secrecy.
He is however
not sure how long the government would remain stable.
Chief minister Kamat
confirmed that Alemao would be given the PWD portfolio, earlier held by Sudin
Dhavalikar.
Alemao claimed that he had decided to withdraw support to the
Manohar Parrikar-led Goa Democratic Alliance to provide stability to the Kamat
government and the state.
Regarding the seven demands on which he had fought
the elections against the Congress, Alemao said he would discuss it with the chief
minister.
He had quit the Congress prior to elections since the party was
not prepared to meet these demands.
UGDP MLA Babush Monseratte, in the meanwhile,
denied the allegation made by Parrikar that he had withdrawn support under pressure.
"I am not under any pressure", he claimed.
