Exactly, Antonio.
This is nothing but revenge that Goans want to take over other Goans.
Hopefully this will end soon or else....... Goa is a goner.

Subject: [Goanet] Registration of Births imbroglio
Let us take the case of Gujaratis and Keralites who lived for sometime in
the then
British East Africa and in the Gulf Region respectively. Some thousands of
them
were born in these non-Indian regions but nevertheless are now Indian
citizens
living peacefully in India . Their births were automatically recorded in
the Civil
Registrar offices whether in Nairobi, Dar es Salaam , Mombasa or in Dubai,
Muscat or Kuwait.
Could their citizenship be at stake because they were born abroad or
because
their names appear in the foreign Register of Births ?
When the Portuguese left in a hurry they could not carry along with them
to
Lisbon
various registers recording the births under their flag on or before 19
Dec
1961;
now they have their registers open for voluntary recording/
So recording ones birth would not appear to amount the renunciation of
citizenship
However applying for a non Indian passport would definitely amount to
change in
citizenship
