New Delhi, 2 April, 2010



Goa Chief Minister Digambar Kamat of the Congress Thursday called Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi as his best friend.

During a press conference at his residence when media asked whether he would be visiting Gujarat on 1st May for golden jubilee celebration on Gujarat government invitation, Kamat replied: “if time permits, I will go. Modi is my best friend.” Such invitations are extended by state governments, he added.

“When I am in Delhi for any conference. I have Sheila Dikshit on my one side and Narendra Modi on the other. In any meeting or conference of chief ministers, we all CMs seat together. We take lunch or dinner on one table. I may have differences of opinion with Modi in politics, but he is my friend,” Kamat, who was formerly a BJP minister in a BJP-led coalition government in Goa, said.
