BJP president Amit Shah and many senior party leaders visited ailing Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) here on Monday.
Sources in the premier hospital said although 62-year-old Parrikar "is not critical", he was under observation. He is admitted at the old private ward under Dr Pramod Garg, professor of gastroenterology.
The visits by Shah and other senior leaders came after Goa's main opposition party, the Congress, submitted a memorandum to Governor Mridula Sinha, staking claim to form an alternative government.
Apart from Shah, Union Health Minister J P Nadda and Union Minister Vijay Goel paid a visit to Parrikar.
Earlier in the day, Shah flew to Delhi from Rajasthan and left again for the state after visiting AIIMS.
According to a hospital source, "Parrikar is not critical and is being treated by a team of doctors. He has not undergone any procedure so far."
