Portugal's Goa Consul-General's recent pronouncement has settled the muddy

Dear Mr. Anvekar,
I am not sure if it is a question of Delusion or Denial followed by
Revision.
Please
Goans born before December 19, 1961 were all Portuguese
Nationals as well as Portuguese citizens. These Goans then became Indian
Citizens by the promulgation of the “Goa, Daman and Diu (Citizenship) Order,
1962”. The Nationality did not change.

Here in the U.K. when we visit the Hospital either as an inpatient or

While Prof Carvalho has written an excellent article, I believe he has made a
slip wrt Nehru and the 1974 Treaty.
Nehru died 10 yrs before that treaty was signed.

It looks surprising that some have said that those born before Goa's
Liberation has Portuguese nationality as its "birthright". Political
history showed why Portugal made Goa a "province" and named it Estado da
