Panaji, Jan 31 (IANS) Ailing Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar is likely to be shifted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in the national capital for examination, a BJP official said here on Thursday.
"The Chief Minister will be shifted to the AIIMS for a regular check up either later today or on Friday. It is a routine check up. He is expected to be admitted to AIIMS for 48 hours," the Bharatiya Janata Part official said, requesting anonymity.
