Goa minister resigns
NDTV Correspondent

Wednesday, January 3, 2007 (Goa):

The Town Planning Minister of Goa has resigned from his post in the
wake of the Goa Regional Plan controversy.

Babush Monserrate put in his papers late on Wednesday night.

For the past few months, Goa has been on the boil with protests,
rallies and demonstrations as the Goa Regional Plan came in for severe
criticism from the local residents and activists.

Earlier, the Goan church had come down heavily on the government
saying corrupt politicians have been virtually selling the state to
the highest bidders.
