[Goanet] ...this letter written in blood to His excellency Prime Minister of Portugal
No point writing to António. The actions must come from Goans. The only thing AC can probably do is to amend the illegal compromise of 1974-75. In Hong Kong young people are taking up the cudgels for a fight with the almighty greatwall. In Goa the youth are dancing to the beat of Bolliwood. The next step is Londonak voitam. BC This letter written in blood to His excellency Prime Minister of Portugal Antonio Costa. Criminals are preparing for yet another assembly election under the modern-day Republic of India. Goa is ripped off in all different ways by criminals who get protected through democracy under the Indian constitution. The extension of Indian type democracy brought into Goa is not serving purpose. Every election just transfers corruption in different hands. Goa core cause ?Special Status? which was the only way we could save what ever was left of Goa under present circumstances the only way out of this vicious circle is time for Goans to think a course of action and explore them. India does not hold mandate to rule Goa, having been denied then the timely plebiscite, nor through any authoritative world international order body like United Nations. India continues to illegally occupy Goa. It is time for Goans to take Goa out of India. This is the easiest and simplest thing that can be done to benefits our Goan population and leave us at peace. The mere intention to grant every Goans born before 1961 Portuguese passports the International Law endorses the Goans as bona fide legal claimants of their territory of Goa. The Chavan/Soares treaty which is just a bilateral treaty and has not come in the way of this intention and in any way stopped it. Under the International Law this intention to grant every Goan Portuguese (Citizenship) passport makes Goans rightful owners of Goa. At the time of negotiating of officially transferring of power of Goa to India in New York in 1974, only the two persons ? foreign ministers of India and Portugal ? decided what is good and what is bad for Goans without even consulting Goans. Nor all that was done in Indian Parliament can take the Goan right should be challenged in the United Nations. We have to approach within the current generation and see if we can get a new leadership from them to fight peacefully for our rights, by approaching UN, and Challenge and undo all this for our land. UN Charter gives certain facilities to the indigenous people who are facing a disguised genocide in Goa. Global Goans can think over this issue because they are in better position to make their voice more audible. Deforestation in the Goan mining belt, corruption in the implementation of Medicine to Goans, sale of Goan lands. The Christian community and their festivities. Not allow people on Anjediva Island for the feasts, as the Indian navy has been building luxury resort for their families there and fooling Goans by making up fake terrorist threats. the Navy out of Dabolim for its illegal occupation. All this is proof that Goans cannot trust the democratically elected Government under the Indian constitution. In 1961, the Indian Union invaded and annexed Goa to them without any plebiscite, merely a result of a conquest by force of arms! This was hypocrisy and this is the root cause of all this corruption. Realizing that injustice was done to Goans Jawaharlal Nehru said in reverse psychology - ?It is not true that we covet Goa. That small bit of territory does not make any difference to this great country India. We do not desire to impose ourselves on the people of Goa against their wishes. It is definitely their responsibility to choose for themselves. We have assured Goans. That it is for them to establish their own future and I further assure them on matters such as Religion, Languages and Customs?. - 21st August 1955.

Quote We have to approach within the current generation and see if we can get a new leadership from them to fight peacefully for our rights, Unquote Here is the new, all Goan POLITICAL leadership, [untainted by the corrupt democratic ways of the national parties, having their vice like grip on Goa's politics, not allowing sensitive Goans to breathe freely] trying to fly but cannot because it does not want to wrap itself with puppet strings of money-bags that will pull it down and not allow it to fly as it wants to. BUT WHERE ARE THE GLOBAL GOANS? OR ANY GOANS AT ALL? Hopefully, with GSRP trying to lead a 30 strong team in the coming elections, this situation will change? To decide what Goans need and want, they have to come together.This is the prime requisite. No? But Goans are kept divided with altogether newer national monsters entering the electoral fray in Goa. 2016-17 is the ultimate MAKE OR BREAK for GOA and GOANS. Only time will tell. But the break, if it happens, will not be blamed for want of deserving leadership. It has been around for the past almost 16 years and no one has taken a second look at it.
