Dear Goencars,
What Jose Colaco is saying is absolute 'tosh'.
Gaonkar in English means Citzenship - not of the country, but of the village
s/he is born.
What right has a foreigner like Jose Colaco got to come to our village and
tell us what we should do with their ancestral
life, not considerd as the new gauncares and have thensame rights
etc as other older gauncares??? You in London are eligible for UK
citizenship; aren't you; so why the discrimination in Goa? food for
thought??

This is my humble opinion and modern thought input to this issue. We have to
give up our old ways and modernise. These days, there are no Clans Communes
anymore; even families are disappearing under the impact of development and
modern thinking. The Hindu unduvided family, has also disappeared
