After Pratimabai Coutinho air-dashed to the national capital early Friday morning to embrace AAP, GPCC Chief Girishbab Chodankar feared the worst from the Goa Congress Mahila Chief. Without wasting time, Girishbab was believed to have briefed All India Mahila Chief and Goa desk in-charge, Dinesh Gundu Rao, even seeking the nod for Beenabai Naik as Pratimabai’s replacement. By the time Pratimabai sent in her resignation, Girishbab was well prepared to grapple with the emerging situation and was quick to appoint Beenabai as the new Mahila chief.
