Goa has been commemorating June 18 as the Revolution Day since its Liberation.
The day was the turning point in Goa's freedom struggle. Whenever I pass the
now-named Lohia Maidan in Margao, I stand and imagine what may have been the
scene that fateful day when Ram Manohar Lohia was arrested alon

Once again I write from memory and tidbits from some notes, so corrections are

Well, yes Telo was charged with bigamy. For that he got what 10 to 12 years in
jail? Historical data has shown how the Portuguese worked against the
nationalists.
I am not sure but I think Telo, on his return, was bypassed for the
supervisor's post in All-India Radio, Delhi and the post given it

I sent a post in reply to Miguel's post before reading Fred's post. So, the
Telo's bio makes it clear that he had "divorced" his first wife and later
married Elsa. So, waa the bigamy charge technically right or was it proved in
Portuguese court that the divorce never legally took place? In my po
Dear Minguel,
Sad to know that the point I made escaped your attention. I said that some
noted freedom fighters left India. It was as a sidelight that I mentioned Telo
wanted to leave India and how his so-called friend betrayed him. I would like
to know further if Telo was, in fact, married to

Miguel, again you have missed the point. It was not me but JC who raised the
issue obliquely and then I said that I know that Telo was charged with bigamy.
The book perhaps tells how long Telo was sentenced. If not for Indian
government's intervention, he would not have been back on Indian soil.
Eugene Correia:
1: Telo was NOT happy that the Indian government that instead of him
being made the "supervisor" of the Portuguese section of AIR, Nehru
prevered Laxmanrao Sardesai.
2: JC likes to "tease". He should give us the gist of the conversation
with Telo. But then to ask in the same manne

1: I disagree with Paulo about his interpretation that India had no
right to Goa. Paulo's position, and some others is that, India was not
a political entity when the Portuguese conquered Goa. This point is
perhaps true although India was a geographical entity.
