The Congress on Thursday said ailing Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar should appoint two deputy chief ministers and delegate some of the key portfolios held by him to his other ministerial colleagues.

On Parrikar's comments in the Assembly on Wednesday that he was high in 'spirit' and fully in his senses, Goa Congress spokesman Ramakant Khalap said his body language neither depicted "josh" nor "hosh", but showed "hunger for power".

Parrikar, 63, who has been suffering from a pancreatic ailment, had made the comments while presenting the state budget in the Assembly.

Khalap said, "The Goa government has created history and presented a miracle budget. During his seven-minute speech, Parrikar used words like 'he has josh and hosh'."
