'Negro' row: Goa CM apologises, blames clerk
The word appeared in a written reply by government on the issue of foreign nationals arrested in Goa.

Panaji: Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar on Thursday apologised for the use of word 'negro' in a written reply in the legislative assembly and blamed a clerk for it.

"I was told that some national channels are broadcasting report about the mistake related to negro word. What is this madness? There are 10,000 pages, I can't go through each word. It was a mistake by a clerk. Also the word was in reference to an unknown person," Parrikar said.

The word appeared in a written reply by government on the issue of foreign nationals arrested in Goa.

"I feel pity....I am worried as to whether these news channels will survive....I am not talking against journalists," he added.

What's your reaction?
