Goa Forward Party chief Vijai Sardesai has criticised state Ports Minister Michael Lobo over his remarks against Indian expats, and alleged that the Pramod Sawant-led government is "intolerant" towards criticism.

Lobo on Saturday claimed some expats were poisoning the minds of locals over developmental projects in the state.

"Those holding the Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card should be more concerned about what is happening in Portugal or London. Leave Goa to us, we are here to take care of it. We know you love Goa, but be positive about the state. Don't create roadblocks," the minister said.

Reacting to it, Sardesai alleged that the "BJP-led state government is intolerant towards criticism against it."
