Hi Prajal, These things happen all the time, I have seen beautiful Syrian Christian churches having their altars 'modernised' with sparkling tiles and the old wooden structures totally demolished and sold as pieces.
But tell me how can I help so that we are not a part of such 'modernisation'. I am based in Bangalore but will be in Goa in May 2006. Incidentally are you Professor Sakhardande's daughter ? Hope I can help you in some way, Regards, Sonia do Rosario Gomes [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Jorge/Livia de Abreu Noronha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Prajal, > > It is indeed a pity that permission was given by the > Goa State Archaeology > for such a sacrilege to the state's heritage.
