Likewise, he left for the US on March 7, 2018, this was confirmed by Goa CMO office.
Earlier, Parrikar wrote to Goa Governor Mridula Sinha that he would be leaving for the US for further treatment. In addition to this, he formed the Cabinet Advisory Committee who will work in his absence to guide the state administration. The committee comprises of Francis D'Souza (BJP), Sudin Dhavalikar (Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party) and Vijay Sardesai (Goa Forward Party).
