I merely sought to point out that ahyas were missing from that record. You might have been living in a vacuum if you did not hear the term widely used in India after the Goan "liberation!"

Sir Walter Crocker was the Australian Ambassador to India during the period, and recently passed away aged 100. "Sir Walter saw through the pretence of peacefulness adopted by Nehru and his successors and correctly forecast Indias development of nuclear weapons." - http://www.adelaideinstitute.org/Dissenters/crocker.htm My own copy of the book has come from San Mateo County Library (USA). Perhaps Carmo D'Cruz has one lying in his vast garage (big enough for a trio of ponies?), and he would do better by reading it.

The above statement is possibly based on rusty IIT maths. If Nehru said/proclaimed : 'Goans, cooks, butlers etc' over 50 years ago, and if this proclamation was after Dec 19, 1961 Then, we must presently be in the year 2011-2. Bravo IIT. I always knew that you taught Maths differentlybut this differently? Now, Nehru did use those three words (i.e. Goans, cooks, butlers) in one sentence. The sentence (as reported by those who went to see him) is NOT as K3 has constructed it. The inference, however, is the same i.e. Goans are only cooks and butlers. No need for them to decide on their future. It has to be decided for them. And what did the "Freedom Fighters" do when they heard these comments ? It is reported that they came back to Goa "quite disappointed". Many years later .the Govt of Goa was to produce a Video CD starring Ramesh Deo. This VCD which was full of Bondollam, was funded by the Goa Govt. It was later withdrawn after the 'bogus facts' were exposed by (inter alia) Miguel Braganza et al. K3 may wish to research and advise Which Goan was the brain behind this bogus VideoCD. jc for your reading pleasure : http://www.colaco.net/1/GoaNiz.htm
