The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) is monitoring the medical treatment being given to Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar at Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital, where he has been admitted since February 15, said Deputy Speaker of the state Assembly, Michael Lobo.

"The PMO is monitoring the treatment. He (Parrikar) is being given the best of the medical treatment and he is recovering," said Lobo

Lobo also said that Prime Minister has given all consent, and if he (Manohar Parrikar) needs to be taken abroad for treatment then he should be taken.

"I expect from Lilavati Hospital he will come back to Goa after recovering and will not be taken out of India," he added

However, Goa BJP General Secretary Narendra Sawaikar said that Parrikar is being treated by best of experts and as per information his condition is stable. "News that he is being flown to USA for treatment is false and baseless."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had visited Parrikar at the hospital during his Mumbai visit.

Parrikar is being treated in Mumbai since February 15. He was admitted to the Mumbai hospital after an initial check-up in Goa as he complained of stomach pains. 

Meanwhile, the Goa Police have detained a local journalist in connection with an alleged false news item about the health of Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar.

The action against the journalist was taken after BJP leader Sunil Desai filed a complaint with Ponda police alleging that a fake news was being circulated, in which he (Desai) was being quoted about the health condition of Parrikar.

The Budget session of the Goa Legislative Assembly, which began today, would last for only four days owing to the illness of Parrikar.
