Re: A. Veronica Fernandes made a mistake.

Dear A. Veronia Fernandes,

A million thanks for your prompt clarification, which I managed to read only today. An apology is not at all required from you as it was only a typographical error. Your family seems to have experiencedcertain similar unpleasant situations under the Portuguese Rule. I fully agree with you that the the Goans were happier under the Portuguese Rulers. In fact, after Dadra & Nagar Haveli was liberated in August 1954, my late father, Carlos da Cruz, on seeing the never seen before corruption in Silvassa's administration, started writing a book entitled "ABUTRES SOBRE CADAVEIS" (VULTURES ON THE GRAVES/CORPSES). Unfortunately, Cancer ended his life before he could complete it.

Keep up the good work you are doing from Kuwait for the Goans and Goa.
