NEW DELHI: The crisis engulfing the Congress-led coalition in Goa appears to have blown over amid hints that beleaguered Chief Minister Digamber Kamat will have to make some changes in his cabinet to keep the allies in good humour.
NCP leader Praful Patel, who announced after day-long consultations among all concerned parties that the four-day old crisis has been resolved, sidestepped questions on whether it involved some changes in the ministry.
"The Chief Minister will announce the formula to solve the issues on his return to Goa tomorrow," he told reporters skirting questions whether Kamat has saved his job by agreeing to effect changes in his ministry.
Kamat, who arrived here yesterday for talks with central leaders had remarked that "God will save my government", thereby virtually throwing up his hands in the wake of the political developments that took him by surprise.
"All NCP MLAs, MGP MLAs, Independent Vishwajit Rane and Save Goa Front member have decided to support the Digamber Kamat government," Patel said.
"All matters have been solved," he said. The Kamat Government on Wednesday became a minority regime with its alliance partner NCP and Rane withdrawing support.
