Gabe Menezes: This is probably the best thing done by the NRI Minister for Goans this year. Question is why was it a practise to favour only Hindus and Sikhs before?
Response:That is because of Indian style 'secularism'. Dalit Christians and Muslims are denied benefits which are extended to dalits from Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism. No logic, no reason. Hindutva influence perhaps which considers Christians and Muslims as foreigners. Regards, Marshall
