Re: [Goanet] Protecting Goa's heritage
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.

The same thing happened to me when I heard that the antique livros, books and grunths that lined the walls of the Panaji Goa Medical College library and office building were incinerated when the old building was razed to make room for the new fish market.

Re: [Goanet] Protecting Goa's heritage
Hi Santosh, I am sorry I got the gender wrong, my apologies, Prof Sakhardande was brilliant so is it surprising that the sons are brilliant ? My question is how do we stop this vandalism which goes by the name of modernisation.

Re: [Goanet] Protecting Goa's heritage
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 ?

Re: [Goanet] Protecting Goa's heritage
Prajal, While this might sound a bit trite to you. i would suspect that the temple committee that obtained permission to raze this monument in the process of bulding a new one ( possibly to accomodate a greater number of devotees)could be persuaded to incorporate into the facade and interior of the new structure significant statuary and artifacts from the old temple in cause of history and heritage preservation ?? Many new buildings in the west hold on to age-old artifacts and add them into the design of the newer and more modern structures. - Original Message - From: Jorge/Livia de Abreu Noronha [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Goa's premiere mailing list, estb. 1994! goanet@goanet.org Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2006 3:01 AM Subject: Re: [Goanet] Protecting Goa's heritage 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.
