Threat to BJP in goa

Goa cannot afford any social and political unrest that may arise due to the ban on mining in the state imposed by the Supreme Court in October this year. Trouble is reportedly brewing for the state unit of the BJP with a group of party legislators demanding a change in leadership. This demand can be attributed to the closure of the mining industry. Though the state BJP president has brushed aside this reported rebellion as mere rumour, the intra-party differences over the issue of mining threaten to tear apart the BJP any moment.
