"Svatantryapurti Divas" at National Level
Dear Mr. Naik,
Greetings.
Requesting this bit of info from you.
1. Goa Legislative Assembly is on record to have passed an unanimous
resolution on August 30, 2008 that Goa should get Special Status to save
its land, ethos and culcuture just like Mizoram et al. Is this a fact???
... motions having been moved by Reginald Lourence (Curtorim) and Francis
D'Souza (Mapusa)
2. Has this resolution been conveyed to the Center?? If so, when??
Thank you
with kind regards
floriano lobo

"Shantaram Naik denotes only a part of what Nerhu had said and conveniently
forgets that he
had promised special status for Goa to protect our Identity and our culture.
What has he and his party done to get for Goa and Goans, he is just trying to
get some popularity before the elections, nothing less nothing more."
Comments : Camilo Fernandes : Following Floriano's lead in sending above
mail to Shantaram Naik, I suggest that all Goans both based in Goa and overseas
should send emails on the same lines as Floriano's mail to Naik, demanding
what steps he has taken to grant special status for Goa. As Freddy wrote,
Shantaram should also be reminded the promise Nehru made to Goans to grant
special status for Goa to protect the identiy and culture of Goans.
