"Money power has won over people's power. I apologise to the people of Goa as we couldn't muster the support to form the government," Singh tweeted.

He said the Congress' struggle against communal forces and money power politics in Goa shall, however, continue.

He later extended his Holi greetings with wishes of maintaining brotherhood in the country.

Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar, who on Sunday was projected by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as the new Chief Minister of Goa, has claimed the support of 21 lawmakers in the 40-member assembly.
