Manohar Parrikar extremely critical: Goa CMO

Ailing Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar's health condition is extremely critical, his office said Sunday.

Parrikar, 63, is suffering from a serious pancreatic ailment and is currently at his private residence at Dona Paula near here.

"Chief Minister @manoharparrikar's health condition is extremely critical. Doctors are trying their best," the CMO tweeted this evening.

The former Defence Minister's health, which has been fluctuating for a year, took a turn for the worse in the past two days.

Police presence around the house has also been increased.

Several party leaders and allies in the state government had rushed to meet him on Saturday.
