Hi Santosh,
You mean books, and other material were incinerated
for that smelly market and to think I thought such
things never happen in Goa !
Have you been to Hampi, that is total destruction but
there was some wonderful restoration going on but some
groups stopped it, they felt the destruction was part
of history, maybe, but I think restoration has begun
again. Anyway, the old temple (Goddess Mahalsa) in
Verna has been restored, I plan to vist it this time.
Regards,
Sonia
