I fully agree with this and strongly recommend that Roman script Konkani
should be introduced in schools instead of Devnagnri script. Surely our
catholic children will be happy to learn and use our mother tongue
Konkani, much better in the actual Roman script, since it will be much
easier for them to read and write then in Devnagri script. Also English should
be made compulsory from the Primary section in Goa,as every child should have
a strong English base for education as its an international language.
Thank you, Ninette.
