In 1968 I was present when the statue of Afonso de Albuquerque the founder of Goa was removed by the then MGP led by Dayananda B. Bandodcar. Its replacement was a so called amity statue of two men one in a pudvem and another in shorts ie to depict a Hindu and Cristao. This in my opinion is nothing more than stereotyping of two communities, and the actual fact with no amity in sight. Today it is time for those millennials to make a change. Remove the statue and replace it with a multifaceted sculpture of our seafarer Goans, the lamani street cleaners, field workers, toddy tappers, poders, mineworkers, nurses etc. BC
