Just to state that my father was sent from Mozambique to Goa to study in an English-medium school, in 1941, because he wanted to study in English! I believe he studied in what was then the "People's High School", in Panjim (forgive me if I am wrong, I did not check this with him).
One more example of how inaccurate facts or outright lies pass as "information" in the Goan media!
Even my grandfather did his schooling in English, in Goa, (and in Salcete, where he was born), before migrating to Mozambique in 1918.

In the article "GOAN GOING GONE" in the International
Goan Observer, the following quote was noted:"  Before
liberation there were NO English medium schools or
colleges in Goa"

Based on the above confident nonsense, one would have
to assume that Holy Cross Convent, Bastora; Holy Cross
Convent, Siolim, St Thomas School, Aldona and Loyola
School, Margao (to name a few) were in Pakistan!

Alfred de Tavares......you have now been judged to
have attented a NON-ENGLISH medium school in Goa!

Thank you Rajan Narayan....for that Revision. You are
getting there.....in the company of the Revisionists
alright

jc

Doesn't anyone check this categoric stuff before it
goes to print?
