Goa power minister says finance department holding up work

After “differences of opinion” between Goa CM Pramod Sawant and Health Minister Vishwajit Rane surfaced in April, state Power Minister Nilesh Cabral has voiced his grouse against the finance department – Sawant’s portfolio – saying it was holding up the work of the electricity department by returning their files.

A day after he said “I am going to ask the CM if I should work or sit at home”, Cabral, however, said it was red tape in the finance department that was coming in the way of the power department’s project of underground cabling of power lines.
