500 years ago Goan ancestors fought side by side with
Afonso de Albuquerque to liberate Goa from the
Muslims. Today 25th November is also the feast of St.
Catherine of Alexandria.
This part of our history has been convenientely
forgotten by the likes of Carmali and co. Now they
have started threatning the Catholics in Fontainhas
because of their adherence to the Arts Festival
because it is supposed to link to Portuguese culture.
500 years ago Madd Poi and the like of Timoja begged
Albuquerque to get the hindus out of the rut, if not,
would Carmali have been a kapouh?
