25 years ago, when starting off in journalism, this was one of the
first photographs of mine that got published. It was in the Herald,
sometime after October 1983. By some chance, it surfaced amidst the
clutter of paper on my table. It has been a long journey …
Actually, I was rather puzzled on reading
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanislaus_Kostka and wondered what
exactly the 17-year-old did to deserve sainthood. Is the Wikipedia
page inadequate in reflecting his life? Or, did he get sainthood

Surprisingly we never heard any expose of the media
when Porrikar was in power and when he literally tried
to suffocate the Goan media with his fanatical and

If we accept that Goa is indeed a multi-cultural society
(multi-lingual, multi-dialect, multi-script, multi-ethnic, multi-caste
and multi-race), then we probably need to reflect its diversity better
