Nehru's confidence, indeed.

That is why Cardinal Gracias never thought of holding Nehru to his promises 
to Goa.  Indeed helped him to bundle Goa into India, lock stock and barrel 
without any safeguards. Today Cardinal Gracias would be honoured by Goans if 
Special Status for Goa was demanded and attained immediately  after the so 
called liberation. Goa is still slogging on this issue after 52  years. So 
much for Nehru's confidence that he enjoyed.
