Portuguese IDs
During my recent vacations in Goa in late September 2009, I was given to
understand
that the Portuguese Consulate had processed a large number of Goan applicants
for
the Portuguese ID.
But is it legal to have such an ID when I hold an Indian passport?

I think it is time for the BJP at the center to shake away their communal
face. Though the party claims to be branded as communal because of their
no-appeasement policy, they are not accepted in a progressing country like
India.
In the Goa scene however, the party already has a progressive face.
mmdm, After hearing about how nice Canada is, could we have some way
of (i) shifting the entire Goan population to Canada or (ii) trying to
get solutions that work in Goa itself?
Would appreciate any pointers in either direction. Best, FN
