The BJP will stake a claim and approach Governor PS Sreedharan Pillai to form the government. Earlier on Saturday, Sawant met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi to discuss government formation.
In the recently concluded state Assembly polls, the BJP emerged as the single largest party in Goa, winning 20 seats in the 40-member state Assembly and decimated Congress to 11 seats.
The BJP fell one seat short of the majority figure in Goa but is set to retain power in the state with the help of Maharashtrawadi Gomantak (MGP) and independent candidates.
