Santosh has hit the nail right on the head! Further, why should anyone vote for a party whose founder and head honcho peddles a blatant lie, makes a baseless accusation which flies in the face of the legislative history of Goa? In Portuguese days, if you wanted to damn someone all you had to

India invaded Goa please read the UN documents. After 61 most Goans were forced to become Indians they had no choice. Nehru had promised elections but there were none. The nail was finally driven into the coffin when in 1974 in a non consultation process Goa was handed on a platter for further

Goa was conquered by the Portuguese in 1510. India conquered Goa in 1961. Most Goans living in Goa today consider themselves Indian. Why would they want to vote for Goa Su-Raj whose founder does not consider himself an Indian, and holds Goa's independence from India as his ideal goal? Cheers,

I understand the diatribe against Uday Bhembro. But I have a hard time making sense of the contradictory claims made in the post appended below: 1. Does Goa Su-Raj party want to establish the pre-1961 dictatorial administration or continue with a democratic one? 2. Does it want Goa to secede
