Eugene Correia wrote to Paulo: 1: What I said about Telo may have never come back on Indian soil, was a deliberate attempt to annoy you and JC. But if that line made you go LOL it served its purpose.
2: The good doctor said that Lohia did not speak at Margoa. Lohia began his speech and after delivering a few lines from his prepared speech he was arrested. He put his prepared speech in the hands of Vishwanath Lawande who began reading and after some time the police snapped the sheet from him and took was taken away. 3: The few lines Lohia spoke did, in fact, thundered across all Goa. Check the recent issue of Goa Today, In the piece by Sharmila Kamat and Pratima Kamat, the writers say, "Dr. Lohia's clarion call soon echoed all over Goa: "Dhanya Lohia, dhanya bhumi hi, dhanya tiche putr, dhanya tyancho tyaag, dekhte janatche netr.' 4: Pratima's book, Farar Far, too has a brief account of the incident. == jc's comment: Most 'respected' Eugene Correia, a: Your writings do not annoy me - they amuse me. They amuse me because of your penchant for writing without research. That, for an alleged journo, is rather curious. But then ...as is said with computer data - Garbage in and Garbage out. b: Do tell us Eugene that you have (as a journalist) the reputation in Canada of being a journo who researches before he writes. c: Have you heard about the phrase "Fugeito petoita and bosson poita (polletah)? d: I do not know IF you were in Margao in 1946. I know I was no where in sight or even 'twinkle'. Would you know if Sharmila Kamat and Pratima Kamat were around? So ...then ....what is the basis of their claim? who did they speak to - for the book or article. If they were referring to Juliao Menezes' book - did they cross reference it? e: In which language did Lohia give this alleged "clarion call" to Goans? and WHAT language is that which you have quoted above in #3 f: There was a time when Mario's amigos told bondollam - ani more bondollam. If not for investigative journalism (not your forte, surely), the bondollam would have been history written in stone. That is why regurgitation must be challenged. Do you challenge regurgitation? g: I do not wish to comment about Lawande. Today is not my day to think about the RSS. h: I commend to you a system some of us teach in medicine and which I see being used in the judicial pronouncements I get to read every now and again : One looks at ALL the available facts and known circumstances of the case and cross-checks them for reasonable probability. i: INFRA is a myth which was/still is being propagated in Goa - which a real historian (who is both a scholar and a researcher) tore into. j: As Velim based Xri Konfucius said: He who writes SOLELY based on another person's book - not really certain of the truth. He also no use his sense. The myth and the historian's challenge of the myth: http://www.colaco.net/1/TRSfolkloreRaneRajput.htm while you are in the mood for reading (here is another view available for challenge by researchers) http://www.colaco.net/4/GoaLib18.htm jc BTW: re ...your Title: June 18-- Let the Revolution Begin; jc asks .....WHICH REVOLUTION and WHICH JUNE 18?
