Panaji, Apr 1 (IBNS): Goa Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar has created a new controversy by allegedly advising the protesting nurses to not stage a hunger strike under the sun as it could darken their complexion, thereby affecting their marital prospects.
to not sit on hunger strike under the sun as their complexion will become dark and they will not find a good bridegroom.
 
An official in Pareskar's office has however denied any such comments.
 
Earlier Parsekar had sparked off a fresh controversy as he had said that some people are born with disabilities due to the “mistake” and “negligence” of God.
 
"There are some brothers and sisters in the society, who are born with certain disabilities. God forgets to give them certain things. That is negligence on the part of God and for that the child has to suffer for entire life,” Parsekar had said at the inauguration of a film festival on special needs and disability issues.
 
The Goa CM had added that NGOs that focus on special needs are “rectifying the mistake committed by God.”
 
Even youth affairs minister of Goa Ramesh Tawadkar  had created a stir after he announced that the government would create centres for the “treatment" of young LGBT people” in the coastal state.  The statement also drew widespread criticism then.
