http://www.oheraldo.in/news/Local%20News/Govt-asked-to-reply-in-illegal-land-filling-at-Colva/34160.html HERALD REPORTER Govt asked to reply in illegal land-filling at Colva HERALD REPORTER PANJIM, MARCH 2 The State Government has to make a statement on Wednesday in the Court about alleged illegal land-filling done in Colva village where the authorities have not taken any action. A Division Bench of Justices Naresh H Patil and N A Britto asked the government counsel Adv Vivek Rodrigues to make a statement tomorrow while hearing a petition filed by Colva Civic Consumer Forum (CCCF) alleging illegal land filling carried out in Colva and the authorities have turned Nelson’s eye allegedly due to a minister’s involvement. The Counsel for the petitioner Nigel Da Costa Frias appearing on behalf of the petitioner alleged that no inspection was carried out though a complaint was made to the authorities. The Minister for Tourism Mickky Pacheco has been made respondent in the petition besides the state government, the Collector South Goa and BDO. The issue was first highlighted by this newspaper last week. -- Please post your comments on my Blog: http://goanidentity.blogspot.com/ Please also see below: 1.

[Goanet] Jai Ho on two counts
Two things which is the talk of the town these days: 1. Any Partying other than cultural fests, weddings etc. need the Home Ministry's Nod. 2. Chalo TCP on 4 March, 2010. As regards (1), now the District Magistrates and the Police can go into the night deep slumber, not that they had a lack of it, anyway. Now, the line that a complainant will get is The Home Ministry has given the permission And with that top clearance, everything will be OK including drugs et al. Whatever little check was there due to the nagging insistence of a few activists, this has been systematically cleared from the top so that everything can go on more than as usual without questions asked. Our Goa Government works in mysterious ways to come to the distress of the corrupters. Jai Ho ! As regards (2), the GBA will be barking up the wrong tree on 4 March 2010. Whatever questions that needs to be asked is at the formerly known as 'The Laxmi' , now known as the Chief Minister's Official Residence located at Altinho, Panjim. Because the CM is the TCP Minister and Mr. Morad Ahmed is only the hired disciple to execute orders. The pat reply that can be expected of Morad Ahmed-ji is: You get the rules changed and I shall follow them - I is not my job to frame them. Jai Ho! Cheers floriano goasuraj 9890470896 www.goasu-raj.org PS: remember that I said so on both counts. It is not ENOUGH that GOOD n HONEST persons contest elections. It is not ENOUGH that GOOD n HONEST voters elect good n honest persons. GOA urgently needs 'HONEST SYSTEM of GOVERNANCE'. Wherein, even a dishonest person is forced to be honest or to QUIT. Only through PPS can such 'honest system of governance' be identified and accepted. PPS=PEOPLE for POLITICAL SANITY Be bold.

[Goanet] Panjim Shigmoutsov Committee 2010, can you do it?
Kitem re FN, how many times you attended Panjim Shigmo? We know, so the organising committee that the Main shigmo float parade (Tableaux of Mythological characters) is essentially a nocturnal one. This means, it should start after 6.30pm. But the Part one of the floats itself takes about 2 hours (with Romtamel, folk dances, fancy dress etc). If the whole event which was scheduled to start 4.30pm (as per news paper ads/announcements) starts on time or say 4.45 or 5pm, will it not give coverage of darkness to the second section of the floats? As said, if they can’t do it, they should not be lying to public (year after year) by giving false starting up timings etc. Announcing the start of the event say at 4.30pm and actually starting the same say at 6.30pm. don’t you think this is absurd? Fyi, last year the committee assured (in newspaper) it will start on time i.e.4.30pm but it started 6pm And when I said ..'Can you do it?' I meant 'can you start it as per your announced timing'? Hope you got the point now, Extra: What’s shigmo?

Considering the various dynasties - from the north-central and south-eastern part of the subcontinent which invaded the territory we now know as Goa, I submit that a wee bit more research will have to be done before one is able to make such 'darjoid' assumptions.

It was a Sports Stadium. Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in a running event. * Ready! * Steady! * Bang!!! With the sound of Toy pistol, All eight girls started running. Hardly had they covered ten to fifteen steps, when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down, Due to bruises and pain she started crying. When the other seven girls heard the little girl cry they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back. Seeing the girl on the track they all ran to help. One among them bent down, picked her up and kissed her gently and enquired as to how she was.. They then lifted the fallen girl pacifying her. Two of them held her firmly while all seven joined hands together and walked together towards the winning post .. There was pin drop silence at the spectator's stand. Officials were shocked. Slow claps multiplied to thousands as the spectators stood up in appreciation. Many eyes were filled with tears and perhaps even God's! YES. This happened in Hyderabad [INDIA], recently! The sport was conducted by National Institute of Mental Health. All these special girls had come to participate in this event They were spastic children. Yes, they were Mentally Challenged.

The proportions of the Nazi swastika were fixed based on a 5x5 diagonal grid. Characteristic is the 90° rotational symmetry and chirality, hence the absence of reflectional symmetry, and the existence of two versions of swastikas that are each other's mirror image. The mirror-image forms are often described as: * clockwise and counterclockwise; * left-facing and right-facing; * left-hand and right-hand. Left-facing and right-facing are used mostly consistently referring to the upper arm of an upright swastika facing either to the viewer's left (卍) or right (卐). The other two descriptions are ambiguous as it is unclear whether they refer to the arms as leading or being dragged or whether their bending is viewed outward or inward. However, clockwise usually refers to the right-facing swastika. The terms are used inconsistently (sometimes even by the same writer), which is confusing and may obfuscate an important point, that the rotation of the swastika may have symbolic relevance, although little is known about this symbolic relevance. Less ambiguous terms might be clockwise-pointing and counterclockwise-pointing. Nazi ensigns had a through and through image, so both versions were present, one on each side, but the Nazi flag on land was right-facing on both sides and at a 45° rotation. The name sauwastika is sometimes given to the left-facing form of the swastika (卍). Read and learn more at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika Cheers! Cecil ===

[Goanet] Recovering the Republic -I
Recovering the Republic - I Recovering Power from a cynical use of the Law (This essay was first published as a column in the Gomantak Times, 3 March 2010) The column a couple of weeks ago asserting that the centenary of the declaration of the Portuguese Republic was also a Goan event, received a few responses that convinced me of the need to follow that argument with an explanation of some sort. These responses were shocked by the connection made between Dalit and Bahujan consciousness in Goa and the declaration of the Portuguese Republic. The Portuguese Republic, they were at pains to explain, was not an angelic affair committed to equality throughout the Portuguese empire. It had dictatorial tendencies, was entirely concerned with issues in the metropole (that is continental Portugal) and in fact laid the foundations for the persecutions of the Estado Novo under Salazar. To be fair to these responses, I must admit that they were rightly triggered by my use of the word ‘celebration’ in the context of the Declaration of the Portuguese Republic. Celebration suggests an uncritical appreciation of an event. Commemoration would be a more appropriate term, given that it requires solemn stock-taking of an event, weighing both pros and cons. Having acknowledged the error in choice of words, I believe that I have gone some distance toward assuaging the outrage of my interlocutors. However, I would now like to address the question that they put to me, whether one can be justified in laying claim to an event that did not have the liberation of the Goan Bahujan in mind. Surely, one critic suggested, this Bahujan activist was mistaken? The original column that sparked off this response, indicated rather clearly the two edged, cynical use of ideas of liberty and equality that marked the inauguration of the European republics. The bourgeois classes that spearheaded these revolutions made a cynical use of these ideas, largely to ensure a larger support base as they attacked the feudal regime. However, having done so, they were now hostage to the idea that was then implemented by the masses in the slow progress of democracy. Suhas Palshikar, in his essay in the must-read book titled ‘Humiliation: Claims and Context’, edited by Gopal Guru sums it up rather aptly. ‘Democracy’ he says, ‘even only a very formal democracy - cannot be stopped from infusing some amount of democratization’. The moment the bourgeoisie introduced the rather novel idea of ‘power to the people’ they were inviting a group, hitherto outside of the frame of power politics, into its very heart. Once invoked and legitimized in the course of the French Revolution, the roll of democracy was unstoppable, as formerly disenfranchised masses seized the opportunity to rid themselves of inequality. To understand the complex and cynical politics of Republicanism, have a look at the history of Haiti. The French Revolution was marked by the slogan of equality for all, a slogan taken seriously by the black slaves in Haiti, who declared their freedom and independence. This was, to be sure, hardly the intention of forces dominating the Revolution. The resistance of the French to this declaration led to the Haitian Revolution that eventually saw the declaration of independence of this territory. Equality in republican Europe, was not intended for people of colour, nor for the colonies. Not in France, nor in Portugal. But this should not blind us to the fact that the mere declaration did in fact result in a legal change that allowed people to assert claims that could never be legitimately made until then. Palshikar extends this logic to nationalist struggles in colonial settings as well. He points out, no doubt referring to the nationalist history of British-India, that ‘similarly, the moment the nationalists in colonial societies departed from exclusively conspiratorial and secret methods and waged ‘people’s struggles’, they were running the risk of their nations being claimed by ordinary people’. Large portions of the Indian elite were not comfortable with the idea of the unwashed masses gaining a say in the governance of the country. This discomfort continues today in such assertions as made by the ‘Friends of the BJP’ when they stress that we as educated know better than the rest of the ‘illiterate’ population. Clearly then, once the democratic idea is invoked, it fundamentally changes the rules of the game. People who formerly could not even imagine themselves as equal, now begin to hear the powerful voice of the law tell them that they are equal. This powerful voice may be cynical, not meaning what it says, but having uttered these magical words, is now powerless against the influence of its own logic. A legal history of the territory of Goa would have to necessarily recognize that the Declaration of the Portuguese Republic, that extended equality to all citizens, as a significant moment in this history. To argue that the Portuguese
[Goanet] Uncouth Goans and Goan Jews (was Rupya Reputation)
As a Goan Jew, I can say that we would have no issues with India adopting the swastik as a symbol of its currency. Most of us are quite aware of Hindu symbols and the need, nay the right, for Hindus and India to express its heritage with pride. The alliance and mutual understanding between Jews and Hindus is quite natural as we were both targets of Christian aggression and imperialism. Goan catholics in particular need to wake up from their slumber and cease the comical worship of their ONE god(s) ... you know, God the father et al, the Mother of god and the endless demi-Gods also known as the saints. And, what is it with Goans and their disgusting affinity to be named after anti-Jewish tyrants? I understand that there are quite a few Hitlers and Stalins living in Goa. In fact, isn't there a person by the name of Naz.. er.. Nasci on goanet? When a person such as this is allowed to broadcast his bigotry and intolerance on this forum, it sends shivers down my spine. The few prominent Churchills around, cannot make up for the verbal and emotional torture we Jews suffer, when we hear their names and what they have to say. Besides their terrible choices with names and their religion, catholic Goan cuisine is quite horrid as well. To have names such as Leitao is one thing, but to be eating a leitao makes me dream of the finer cuisine that was served to the prisoners in Aushwitz. Perhaps it is because I was scarred for life as a child. My renunciation of my imposed christian faith and Goan culture was sealed when I had to take the throne in my grand mothers house and watch the pigs lap it up from underneath me ... and not much later to have the same animal served to me on a plate. It does not stop there. The look of a goan sausage, all twirled up in a tidy brown pile is quite visually assaulting - if you know what I mean. If you want to eat pork, that is fine, but why do you take pleasure in eating it in a form that also resembles the animal's staple diet? Presumably this is Nasci's definition of a pork consuming Modern Goan culture! There are a lot of non-resident Goans who continue to screech about the non-Goan influx into Goa. Let me say that contrary to your christian tenant that we Jews are cheap, the fact is that we are rich and spend a lot of money. It is our desire to have another Jewish homeland in N.Goa and there are a lot of you willing to sell it to us at market rates. FYI, the next time, you visit the Goan Jewish territories of Aramabol, please make sure you respect our refined culture and values. Uncouth catholic Goans, with evil sounding names should stay away however.

[Goanet] Youtube video shows nexus of drug mafia, Goa police-- WHO IS THE EDITOR
Youtube video shows nexus of drug mafia, Goa police March 3rd, 2010 - 11:10 pm ICT by IANS - Panaji, March 3 (IANS) A video uploaded on the popular Youtube website showing an Israeli drug dealer talking about his alleged links with the Goa police’s anti-narcotics sleuths has created a flutter in the state. The 8.16-minute long video was uploaded on youtube.com by user OrenbenYaish back in April 20, 2008, and features Atala, a reportedly notorious Israeli drug peddler. Atala, an Israeli youngster with close cropped head, is shown in the video speaking about how a senior anti-narcotics cell (ANC) officer, whom he identifies as ‘Ashish’, regularly sells him drugs seized from raids and even deposited with the magistrate. “This Panjim police… this narcotics the chief.. Big chief. Maybe he is one giving drugs. Maybe… he said something to give it to friend. All the time he is giving me five kg charas, ecstasy…,” Atala, who has been arrested previously on drug peddling charge told an unidentified person in the video. “He is very young. Three star (inspector). Before I meet him two star.., only two star. Now he get one more star and he is now big chief… The head anti-narcotic. He know me from before. The first time I meet him. I fight with… he said Atala, listen u my friend. I know u good heart. I like you. I create no problem for you. Give me 10 ecstasy. I tell listen.. You are anti-narcotics. I not give u 10 ecstasy. I scare to give you. He said you are my friend. I open my pocket and give him 10 ecstasy,” Atala says, adding this risk had forged the relationship between the two “more stronger and stronger and stronger”. During the video, an unknown person, whom Atala identifies as an ANC official, also hands him a white plastic bag with cocaine. Atala, who is seated in car parked near Calangute, also says that the rear seat of his car is packed with cocaine, heroine, charas, etc. Incidentally, the ANC was headed by police inspector Ashish Shirodkar for a period of more than two years since 2008. Ashish’s mobile phone number read out by Atala in course of the conversation, also matches with the official phone number of Shirodkar listed in the police records. The arrest of David Driham alias Dudu, a notorious Israeli drug peddler, has opened a Pandora’s box for the state police. Sources said that Dudu under interrogation has named three police officials and several journalists, *including reportedly an editor,* who he said he had bribed in order to carry on his business unhindered. The video and its details have stunned the Goa Police. When contacted, Superintendent of Police Veenu Bansal refused to comment on the issue, virtually scampering away from the media at the police headquarters. Deputy Inspector General Ravinder Yadav said he was not in a position to comment on the video right away. “We will be in a position to say anything only after we verify the genuineness of the footage,” he said. Hours after Yadav was handed over a copy of the controversial footage by mediapersons in Panaji, Director General of Police (DGP) Bhim Sain Bassi claimed that he was not aware of such a video. “Now that you have told me, we will view it and take appropriate action,” Bassi said.

[Goanet] More schlock from the GBA
Rajan has exposed the GBA for what its is. A stooge of the ruling politicians who will dance to the tune of their masters. We need a strong and determined opposition who are not afraid of these corrupt politicians and who can stand up to them and challenge them at every opportunity exposing their corrupt deeds so that they are stripped naked and people can see their deeds for what they are. The upcoming elections should then be contested for every seat so as to throw these scoundrels out of office. The outcome should reflect the disgust of the people and hopefully elect honest and trustworthy people who have the people's and Goa's interests in the foreground and who will be held accountable by their deeds to the people who elected them. I had suggested in previous posts that anyone who seeks election to any public office should be required to declare his or her assets on assuming the office and on exiting the position just like in the U.S. Wives and close relatives' assets should also be kept in check to avoid backdoor corruption. This will dissuade persons who may have thought of seeking election to office in order to enrich themselves at the peoples' expense from seeking election.. Manuel ( Eddie) Tavares
[Goanet] In reply to RP ( Rajan Parrikar not Regional Plan )
Am just curious at the consistency with which Mr. RP attacks activists, victims of the problem rather than the problem itself. Meanwhile, regardless of internet opinions and keyboard activists, we have to keep going on the ground. On another note, as an appeal to all those who feel for this cause, we welcome solidarity. RS
Re: [Goanet] Rupya reputation
I fully support the use of the Swastika on Indian currency as a millenia old cultural and religious symbol. Placing it on the Rupee note will assert the fact that the Swastika is in fact an ancient Indian symbol brought to dis-repute in some Western countries by its usurpation by the Nazis as their symbol of Aryan superiority. A Swastika evokes a great deal of angst among the Jewish people because of the Holocaust inflicted by the Nazis, and is viewed as a symbol of hate towards Jews in Western countries. We need to correct the impression and assert the fact that the Swastika is in fact a revered Indian symbol with roots in Hinduism. No dis-respect meant to the people of the Jewish faith.

[Goanet] The state of economy in colonial Goa
The economy of Goa during the colonial days was not something that is worth writing about. But nevertheless an attempt has to be made. Besides Panjim, Margao, Mapusa and Vasco which were controlled by the Portuguese administrators, almost all villages in Goa had no Portuguese presence at all. Village authorities were : Cabo de Policia, the Regedor and the Pado Vigario (PV). A mestiso was Cabo de Policia, a middle aged son of a local batkar was the Regedor and PVs were mostly Rachol bamons. The village economy was mostly agricultural and controlled by batkars who exploited mundkars without Christian mercy. But then what did the batkars do with their wealth ? They built their haciendas but village wealth was in the hands of Confrarias., Gaunkarias Communidades and what have you and the PV was in charge of it all or was under his influence. The PVs invested this wealth to build Taj Mahals of which today all villagers are proud of. A small part of this wealth went for the welfare of PV's nephews whose descendants today are doing well not only in Goa, but in England, Canada, the U.S. as well not to mentio far off places like Stockholm, Melbourne, Bahamas, Macau etc.
[Goanet] IFFK League Reaching its Pinnacle
IFFK League Reaching its Pinnacle INDIAN FOOTBALL FEDERATION KUWAIT LEAGUE The ongoing league of Indian Football Federation Kuwait is finally reaching its pinnacle with matches being held continuously at the Astro Turf ground in Daya. The 13th round matches were held on 26th February 2010. In the 1st match title contenders Skynet took on Indians. The match was played at a slow and cautious pace. Skynet after gauging the situation took the lead through Caridado and UniKrishnan consolidated it to make it 2-0 at half time. Star midfielder Philip Ferrao and Unikrishnan score again to win the match 4-0 for Skynet. Indian as usual did contain the opposition for a while, but could not do much in the frontline and succumbed to yet another defeat. Skynet showed tremendous skill in the midfield with the introduction of Shabbir who has been missing from their earlier matches. He along with Philip Ferrao mesmerised the entire opposition with their excellent display of football. It was a pleasant sight to watch Skynet President and IFFK council member Ivan Barretto showing his exquisite footballing skills in the first half. The 2nd match was played between Dominic Savio and Veterans. Both the teams displayed good technique and skill. Veterans with their experience and skill matched their young opponents in every department of the game. Dominic Savio defended boldly with Alex marshalling the defence, but Veterans took the lead through their evergreen midfielder Rubin who has been enthralling the Indian footballing community for so many years with the same passion and zeal of yesteryears. Dominic Savio tried to force the pace with Savio excelling in the midfield, but the experience of Veterans snuffed their hopes. In the second half Veterans maestro Rubin once again scored from the top of the box with a scorcher to increase the lead and win the match for Veterans 2-0. The 3rd Match was played between another title contender Fahaheel Bros and MAC. The match started with a blistering pace and MAC stunned the opposition and the fans by scoring the fastest goal of the league through Fayas Kakkot. Before Fahaheel Bros could settle in the game MAC scored the second goal through Abdul Rahman and an upset was on the cards. But Fahaheel Bros had other ideas and slowed the tempo of the match and reduced the margin through Mustafa who volleyed from the right with MAC goalkeeper rooted to the ground. With this goal Fahaheel Bros upped the tempo of the match and scored the equaliser through Riyas Babu. Mustafa missed a penalty to put Fahaheel Bros on top, but scored again through another penalty to go into the lemon time with the score line of 3-2 in favour of Fahaheel Bros. The second half saw Fahaheel Bros consolidating their lead through Abdul Kader. MAC tried in vain to reduce the margin and force back in the game, but Fahaheel Bros controlled the midfield play and came out victorious 4-2 The matches were supervised by Indian Football Referees Association – IFRA, the only professional and competent body of Indian Referees in the region. The schedule of the 14th round to be played on 5th March 2010 (Friday) at the Daiya Grounds is as follows: 1St Match - MAC v/s DHL 2nd Match - Fahaheel Bros v/s Skynet 3rd Match - DBO v/s AVC Report Photographs by IFFK press desk Posted by IndianFootballFederationKuwait

[Goanet] SMILE.................... IT'S WEEKEND (04/03/2010)
WHAT IS…. An old couple (Paulo Paskina) in their late 70s walked slowly into a McDonald's. Some of the customers looked admiringly at them. You could tell what the admirers were thinking: Look, there is a couple who has been through a lot together, probably for 60 years or more! Paulo walked up to the cashier, placed his order with no hesitation and then paid for their meal. The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off of the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of french fries and one drink. Paulo unwrapped the hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife (Paskina). Then he carefully counted out the french fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. Paulo took a sip of the drink, and then Paskina took a sip as Paulo began to eat his few bites. Again, you could hear what people around the old couple were saying. - They were used of sharing everything. Then the crowd noticed that the little old lady (Paskina) still hadn't eaten a thing. She just sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally sipped some of the drink. A young man (Frank) who was watching and admiring the couple, came over and asked: Frank: Ma'am, if you don’t mind, can I buy another meal for you? Paskina: No young man, we are used of sharing. As Paulo finished eating and was wiping his face neatly with a napkin, the young man (Frank) could stand it no longer: Frank: Ma'am, why aren't you eating? What is it that you are waiting for? Paskina: (smiled and answered) As I told you that we share everything. My husband just finished eating his food, so I am waiting for THE TEETH. Cajetan de Sanvordem Kuwait.

D'Souza, Paladka E2-139 Diwan Apt III Vasai Road East Thane Dist - 401 210 Tel: 0250-2390225 Cell: 9320733213 Email: anc...@gmail.com Konkani Literature: Caught In Script Whirlpool By Govinda Raju In the last general Council Meeting of Sahitya Akademi, the Academy of Letters of India, held on February 16, 2010 in New Delhi, Edwin JF DSouza raised the controversial issue of Konkani Script. The language was written in five different scripts for historical reasons; Devanagari, Roman, Kannada, Malayalam and Arabic, whereas Sahitya Academi recognized only the books written in official Devanagari script to the exclusion of all other scripts. By Govinda Raju The bone of contention was that the books written in scripts other than Devanagri were not considered for awards by Sahtya Akademi and, on cue, by other organizations and institutions too. It was a gross injustice to the writers engaged in literary work in Konkani in scripts other than Devanagari. To a pointed question of Edwin DSouza whether Sahtya Akademi recognized the script or the literature; Sunil Gangopadhyaye, President said in an unambiguous term literature! The argument should have ended there but Pundalik Narayan Naik, Convener of Konkani Language Advisory Board cited the Govt of India notifications recognizing the Devanagari script as the official one and also referred to the previous discussion on the subject in the General Council of Sahitya Akademi that remained inconclusive. However, the majority of General Council Members did not approve that the literature created in the same language but different scripts should be discriminated against when the bulk of Konkani literature was written in Kannada and other scripts, according to DSouza. Dr Harish Narang argued that in the hi-tech age of advanced computer programmes where, on a click of the mouse the script can be changed from one script to the other, there was any reason why books written in scripts other than devanagari should remain out of the purview of awards; unless it was meant to limit the competition. After a prolonged discussion, on the suggestion of Sunil Gangopadhyaye, President, the matter was referred to the Language Development Board of Sahitya Akademi for an early resolution. Migration and fragmentation: The arrival of the Portuguese lead to major changes in Konkani. The conversion of Konkanis to Christianity and the religious policies of the Portuguese caused a large number of Konkanis to flee to neighboring territories. The isolation of Hindu and Christian Konkanis added to the fragmentation of Konkani into multiple dialects. The language spread to Canara (coastal Karnataka), Kokan-patta (coastal Konkan division of Maharashtra) and Kerala during the last 500 years due to migration of Konkanis. Although a few Konkanis may have been present in the neighboring areas and there may have been migrations due to economic reasons in the past, the main cause of migration was the Portuguese control over Goa. It was spread to these areas by Hindu Konkani and Christian Konkani speakers in three waves of migration. The first migration occurred during the early years of Portuguese rule and the Inquisition of 1560s. The second wave of migration was during the 1571 C.E. war with the Sultan of Bijapur. The third wave of migration happened during the wars of 1683-1740 A.D. with the Marathas. While the first wave was of Hindus, the second and third waves were mainly those of Christians. These migrant communities grew in relative isolation and each developed its own dialect. Since these communities had to interact with others in local languages on a daily basis, Konkani dialects show strong local influences in terms of script, vocabulary and also style. Other Konkani communities came into being with their own dialects of Konkani. The Konkani Muslim communities of Ratnagiri and Bhatkal came about due to a mixture of intermarriage of Arab seafarers and locals as well as conversions of Hindus to Islam. Another migrant community that picked up Konkani was the Siddis who were sailor-warriors from Ethiopia.
