[Goanet] Notes : The Church in Bombay.

2021-10-22 Thread eric pinto
           With thanks to Rev. Joseph Velinkar SJ. of the Heras Institute Of 
History.
Although India was within the jurisdiction of the  Patronage power of the king 
of Portugal, Rome and the Office of Propagation of the Faith, or Propaganda, 
decided to appoint Vicars Apostolic in areas that were not served spiritually.  
 The vicarate in Bijapur became the Great Mogul's and stretched south to Burma. 
   In 1720, the Carmelite priest occupying the position assumed jurisdiction 
over Bombay, at the request of the British !THis vicarate of the Moghul would 
soon become the vicarate of Bombay    Bassein fell to the Marathas and the 
churches in Salcette were lost. The closing of Jesuit institutions lead to a 
declineof Catholics for lack of education and influence. Restoration would only 
begin in 1814.  The Italian Carmelites were in Bombay from 1720 to 1745, when 
hurdles arose. The archbishop of Goa,insisting on theright of Patronage, 
demande they obtain his permission to perform all priestly duties. A state of 
disharmony followed,and soon the British got involved. The Carmelite head of 
Bombay was expelled, only to return in 1773.   After some years, churches under 
British jurisdiction were withdrawn from the control of the bishop of Goa and 
restoredto the Carmelite bishop of Bombay, a volte face for the governor of 
Bombay.
Double Jurisdiction     Was introduced in 1794 and four churches were to be 
served by the Carmelite mission and two: Gloria and Salvacao along with Cavel 
chapel by Portuguese priests. The Company gave the people the right to reject a 
vicar named by the bishop.    The Bombay government next claimed the right of 
sanction in the appointment of parish priests. In the case of  Salcette, the 
civil regime denied the Goa Archbishop all rights of appointments.      In 1823 
civil war broke out between the king, Manuel who was supported by religious 
orders and the party of Queen Maria Gloria. The latter won and initiated a 
process of church persecution. All religious orders were suppressed and 
relations with the Holy See broken off. The Portuguese government neglected the 
management of church affairs. The Holy See stepped in and created vicarates in 
Madras, Bengal, and Ceylon, which Portugal opposed.                             
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
                             

[Goanet] WILL BSNL SERVICES IN GOA RESURRECT?

2021-10-22 Thread Aires Rodrigues
It is appalling that the telephones at even most government offices have
not been functioning. In times when the communication technology has been
advancing everywhere, the BSNL telephone services in Goa are in utter dire
straits.

Less said the better on BSNL’s internet services. Its connectivity all over
and especially in the villages is extremely pathetic. Even where the
network exists, the speed is extremely slow which is further frustrating.
This has been very adversely affecting students who are on online classes
and also people at large being unable to access online services provided by
the government and other institutions. Fortunately our Courts have resumed
physical hearings.

It is high time that the now dysfunctional BSNLwhich has been in total
disarray, gets its act together.

With technology advancing world wide, the importance, benefits and urgency
of having state of the art internet connectivity with access and speed has
become significantly greater.

The pitfalls of not having one like most of our villages in Goa are sadly
experiencing is absolutely unacceptable.

Progress claimed by the Government cannot be just on paper and mere loud
talk as the people need to experience and feel that real change for the
better.

[Goanet] Aspirations And Realities

2021-10-22 Thread Roland Francis
There are aspirations and there are realities. In Goa, never the ‘twain shall 
meet.

Aires Rodrigues aspiration: to be Panjim’s MLA and clear the city of everything 
undesirable.
Reality: if history is anything to go by, he will lose his deposit let alone 
lose. 

Pramod Sawant aspiration: Goa is a safe place.
Reality: It is so overrun with crime of every kind, Putin must be envying the 
man’s security.

Goa Govt aspiration: To make Goa a tourist destination for well heeled 
discerning tourists. 
Reality: With current dirt and filth in the towns, even low budget Out of State 
tourists attracted by low liquor prices are looking for other places.

Tourist aspiration: Goa Miles will usher in decent taxi prices.
Reality: Ripping off tourists is in the blood of Goan service providers of all 
kinds.

Diaspora aspiration: I will settle in Goa in my sunset golden years to be back 
with my people.
Reality: I’m going back. This is not what I expected.

Note: Reality or not, I hope Aires wins.

Re: [Goanet] CHIEF MINISTER PRAMOD SAWANT MUST BE MODEST AND TRUTHFUL

2021-10-22 Thread Eddie D'Sa



Dear Adv Aires Rodrigues,


Goans must be thankful for your letter on Goa's CM Sawant, showing a 
citizen's interest and concerns.
I guess that this Sawant chap behaves in that typical BJP fashion - full 
of himself like his master Modi.

Fancy using three jeeps for his personal protection.
Did he bother to ask permission from the other officials and how could 
the others restrain him?


Wonder what's his record of public works for Goa citizens. It is worth 
noting your comment:

"Such arrogance and abuse of authority was never ever witnessed in Goa."

Now that his office term is coming to an end, he may be considering all 
sorts of ways of getting a renewal

or may be he will just beg Modi and the Master will agree.
From comments, this Sawant chap needs to be replaced and what better 
successor than you, Aires,
who has enlightened us so much on Goa issues in GoaNet. You seem truly 
devoted to Goa.


But, given the BJP ethics, Modi might coolly plant a new CM of his own 
choice.


Thanks again for your letter in GoaNet.

Eddie

Subject: [Goanet] CHIEF MINISTER PRAMOD SAWANT MUST BE MODEST AND 
TRUTHFUL

It was amusing to hear Goa’s accidental Chief Minister Pramod Sawant
claiming in the Legislative Assembly that the alleged rising Crime rate 
is

not at all an issue and that Goa is a very safe destination.
May we ask the Chief Minister, if that is the case, why he is moving 
around
with an unprecedented three security escort jeeps for his personal 
protection?
In fact the total fleet of police personnel entrusted with the Chief 
Minister’s security would be enough to man a Police Station.Needless to 
state one fails to understand as to how the Director General of
Police has been allowing such huge unwarranted and impermissible 
deployment

of security cover for the Chief Minister in a so claimed very safe Goa.
May we also know as to how Chief Minister Pramod Sawant manages to get 
the

traffic signal lights near the Panaji ferry jetty and at Campal on the
Dayanand Bandodkar Marg all switched off when his convoy of vehicles 
zooms through?

Our elected representatives should at all times act respectfully and
dutifully. Such arrogance and abuse of authority was never ever 
witnessed

in Goa.
As Pramod Sawant approaches the fag end of his tenure maybe he should 
start

getting used to acting as a common man, humble and honest.

Auction houses have stringent rules and demand proof on how and where any

Goa lost of her greats and true to Goan form, he was largely ignored while
alive. In the last 15 years when I got to know Navelcar, I made it a point
to visit him during my trips to Goa.  He lived modestly in his Pomburpa
home and in means below his stature.
Now that Navelcar has passed we will see the usual "remembrances" and
"eulogies" from people who did not make the time for him or support his
work while he was alive. Worse, we will see the vultures descend on his
family to gather his paintings, claiming to be art-lovers.
