    Former Goa minister Achyut Kashinath Sinai Usgaonkar died at a hospital near here on
    Tuesday following age-related ailments, family sources said. He was 92.

    “Usgaonkar died at the Goa Medical College and Hospital (located near Panaji) around 7.30 am,” his son-in-law Dinar Tarcar told PTI.

    He is survived by three daughters, including noted film actor Varsha Usgaonkar.

    Usgaonkar was a leader of the Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party (MGP), the oldest regional outfit in Goa. He served as a cabinet minister from August 13, 1977 to April 27, 1979 in the then Shashikala Kakodkar government of Goa, Daman, and Diu.

    Before serving as a minister, Achyut Usgaonkar was the deputy speaker of Goa during the Dayanand Bandodkar-led government. Bandodkar was the first chief minister of the coastal
    state.
