Cornel,
You are obviously confused as to how the Portuguese
got their surnames, probably by swallowing Portuguese
colonial propaganda hook, line and sinker :-))

There seems to be confusion not just on this forum but
in general in India as well, as to what NRI voting
rights entails. The following link may shed some light
on the matter.

Dear Nasci,
I think you are mixing the issue of absentee voting
ballots and that of NRI voting rights. Or perhaps I am
getting it wrong? Maybe someone in India/Goa can
illuminate us.

Mario, (Elisabeth and all others),
I do know, what is right here! An NRI is an Indian who is residing abroad
and stiil holds on to his/her Indian Passport and Indian Citizenship, and
not interested in changing their Staus Quo, and may or may not be liable for
taxation in India. (this taxation

Dear Nasci,
Thank you for the example of the Italian Govt.
Whenever we come across information like this it
expands the scope of our debate and allows us to take
decisions with wider perception.
However, a minor correction on the term NRI. You are
right, it does mean Non-Resident Indian, in the pu

I have no qualms about NRIs being given voting rights
but to what end? NRIs, PIOs, expats are an apathetic
lot. I should know.

As a second generation NRI, the concept of NRI voting
rights is of great interest to me. Firstly, the term
NRI has been generally misused. NRI, is not a group of
people. The term was primarily a banking concept,
first introduced to accommodate those intrepid souls
