[Goanet] ALDONA MLA ADV. CARLOS FERREIRA SHOULD BE GOA’S UNANIMOUS LEADER OF THE OPPOSITION

[Aires Rodrigues]

For the Congress Party in Goa, the one and only viable option is to have
the very Honourable and distinguished MLA of Aldona Adv. Carlos Ferreira as
the unanimous Leader of Opposition in the Goa Legislative Assembly. The
Party should not have second thoughts or even pause on this issue. Every
day lost is yet another day the opposition is weakened, and the legislative
wing of the party is rudderless like a ship all at sea, drifting without a
captain.

The enormously knowledgeable and down to earth, Adv. Carlos, a person of
proven credentials, integrity and with his tremendous legal acumen he could
lead a strong opposition to the now Power intoxicated BJP.  And let us not
forget that Adv. Carlos who went on to be Goa’s youngest Advocate General
has grown in experience and stature.

The Aldona MLA being a gentleman to the core, by his refined conduct could
ensure that the Opposition in Goa is a force to reckon with. Adv. Carlos
does not need a position, it is Goa that needs a person of his caliber to
steer Goa through this current political mire of a mute, compromised and
speechless Opposition. Instead of dithering and burying their heads in the
sand, the Opposition would do well to urgently take heed of the advice of
Martin Luther King Jr. who stressed the need for courageous, intelligent,
and dedicated leadership… Leaders of sound integrity. Leaders not in love
with publicity, but in love with justice. Leaders not in love with money
but in love with humanity. Leaders who can subject their egos to the
greatness of the cause. Adv. Carlos Ferreira is such a Leader.

In a democracy, an effective opposition plays an important role in
questioning government decisions and actions and raising matters of public
importance on behalf of the electorate. Constructive criticism can expose
the weakness of the ruling Government and make them politically more
accountable and responsible.

Goa and Goans will not forgive or forget those who for the sake of Power
and Political prosperity want to betray that trust the voters bestowed on
them. If they dare do so, the ashes of these Political Prostitutes will be
for all to see. They will be wiped out from Goa’s political horizon making
way for some much needed sanity on our sagging political turf.

Hi Milton

True!

But then how about
our community?

Are we better?

To survive is to change; to survive often is to change often"

How do you define a Goan? There are variations. Did you notice from
behaviours.

Keep up the good work. People want Goa for holidays and to hang their 👢
in retirement. We have gone for the sake of our children.

Kitem re Goankar

Goods evening to you as, we in Australia, are heading for the stars 🌟

As I said before, there would be no
snow flake in hell for Sunak to be a PM and it is easily seen. I respect
him but then two things were not in his favour.

Remember the notices kept outside
the restaurants in Bombay "Dogs and Indians not allowed"
C'ese la vie.
Time to stop the garam masala.

Those who are sitting on the fence are gone out like small 🦀 in their
respective booraks.

[Goanet] Mônti Fest: Feast of the Nativity of Our Lady

[Pratapananda Naik, SJ]

Mônti Fest: Feast of The Nativity of Blessed Virgin Mary
The Cultural Identity of Konknni Catholics

Pratapananda Naik, SJ
Loyola Hall, Miramar, Goa
06th August 2022

On 8th September, Catholics and Orthodox Churches celebrate the Feast of
the Nativity of Blessed Virgin Mary all over the world. In Goa, in the
sixteenth century this feast was called Mônti Fest. Now unfortunately, this
name is forgotten in Goa and it is merely called the Feast of the Nativity
of Blessed Virgin Mary. In Sindhudurg Diocese it is now known as Feast of
the Our Lady of  Vailankanni.
However, today Mônti Fest is the most popular and important cultural and
family feast among the Konknni Catholics of Karnataka. It must be noted
that the 98 to 99% of Konknni speaking Catholics and Hindus of Karnataka,
are originally from Goa. They migrated from Goa to Coastal Karnataka from
16th century onwards for various reasons such as
1. Famine of 1553, 1630-1631 (Teotonio R. de Souza 2009: 30; Pius F. Pinto
1999a:24; B.S. Shastry 2000:257).
2. Declining food production (B.S. Shastry 2000:257).
3. Economic hardships. Conversion deprived converts of much of their former
status. The Portuguese noblemen and ministers showed greater respect to
Hindus than to Christians (Teotonio R. de Souza 2009:196).
4. Conversions also brought humiliation and ill-treatment on converts and
they were treated as captives (Machado A.2015:106). Hence migration was one
of the options.
5. Epidemic in 1543, 1545, 1570, 1583-88, 1618-19, and 1635 (Pius F. Pinto
1999a:23; B.S. Shastry 2000:257).
6. Invasion by the Marathas in 1667, 1683, 1739 (Teotonio R. de Souza
2009:30; Machado A.2015:102-104; Pius F. Pinto 1999b:18).
7. Adil Shah of Vijayapura (formerly known as Bijapur) invaded Bardes and
Salcette in 1570 and between 1654-1659 (Teotonio R. de Souza 2009:30; Pius
F. Pinto 1999b:17; Alan Machado 2015:102).
8. Two severe cyclones accompanied by earthquakes in April 1649 and in July
1654 (Teotonio R. de Souza 2009:30).
9. Inquisition introduced in 1560 (B.S. Shastry 2000:257) and it was
abolished only in 1812. It was intolerant in its religious attitude, it
wanted to impose the Portuguese type of Christianity on the new converts of
Goa by force, it wanted to eliminate all the traces of local culture. Their
names, food habits, social customs, and even dress were made to conform to
the European Christian standards. It created a sense of fear and
insecurity. Thus, to escape from this tyranny migration was the only option
(Pius F. Pinto 1999b:14-17).
10. Imposition of Portuguese language and culture upon all the natives and
suppress their native language through the decree of 27 June 1684 (Teotonio
R. de Souza 2009:67; Pius F. Pinto 1999a:24).
11. Excessive taxation by the Portuguese (Pius F. Pinto, 1999a:15-16; Alan
Machado 2015:99).
12. The Portuguese Christians were not fully prepared to accept the native
Christians as social and cultural equals. They practised social
discrimination as long as the native Christians tried to maintain a
separate identity through their language, customs, and manners (Pius F.
Pinto 1999b:16-17).
13. Population problem in Goa (Pius F. Pinto 1999:18).
14. Nayaka Kings of Keladi welcomed from Goa, cultivators, and skilled
labourers such as carpenters, fishermen, masons, potters, goldsmiths,
businessmen, etc (Pius F. Pinto 1999:19-20); the policy of religious
liberalism of the Nayaka Kings provided incentives to migrate.
Agricultural land was scarce in Goa and availability of fertile lands along
the Coastal Karnataka was easy. Keladi kingdom had scarcity of skilled
labourers. This void was filled by the migrant Christians (Pius F. Pinto
1999:18).
15. The Konknni speaking Christian migrants did not come to the Keladi
kingdom with empty hands. They had cash at their disposal, which they
invested in Keladi territory. Therefore, Nayaks of Keladi whole-heartedly
welcomed Christians from Goa to their kingdom. (Pius F. Pinto 1999:19).
16. In Goa there was scarcity of rice. The local food production was not
sufficient for more than four months in a year. Kanara’s rice kept Goa
alive (Alan Machado 2015:105). This situation too caused migration to
Karnataka.
17. The Christian farming migrants with their qualities of discipline, hard
work, honesty, and skill contributed much to the prosperity of Keladi
kingdom (Pius F. Pinto 1999:19).
18. The Keladi kings knew that it was politically profitable to invite the
Christians from Goa to their kingdom because these Christians knew the
strengths and weaknesses of the Portuguese (Pius F. Pinto 1999:20).
The Konknni speaking Hindus migrated from Goa to Karnataka, Maharashtra and
Kerala as early as 10th century (Alan Machado 2015:97). The Catholic
Konknnis (Konknni speakers) who migrated from Goa took this Mônti Fest from
Goa along with them to Coastal Karnataka. Now these Konknni Catholic
settlers of Coastal Karnataka are spread out in India and all over the
world and they celebrate Mônti Fest with great enthusiasm, whe

[Goanet] LAW AND ORDER

[John Eric Gomes]

*TOLERANCE IN DIVERSITY*
The AAP government had changed the Excise Liquor policy for 2021-22 to
bring in private players which would increase revenue for the government
and offer attractive rebates and varietY of liquors at bigger stores for
better shopping experience for customers! However it appears the BJP via
the LG acted to spike any innovative new scheme since they can control the
elected government policies.So favoring vendors and corruption is alleged.
With experience dealing with the Centre, the AAP reverted to the old liquor
policy controlled in government shops! Not permitting liquor leads to
disastrous consequences for example, recently the Allahabad High Court has
held the UP government liable to pay compensation for deaths caused due
consumption of spurious liquor, or in Gujarat, another BJP state where
liquor is banned for quite some time now but reportedly easily available in
the blackmarket. There cannot be unity in diversity with intolerance!
