On today’s date, 18th
December, in 1961 at about 10.00 PM when it was realized that invasion of Goa
is going to be a reality on the next day, some criminal “Bastards” from
Candolim in a group of around 8 persons, all males, came with Guns to kill the
prominent village personality Dr. Gustavo Monteiro. They projected themselves
as pro-Bharati and Dr. Monteiro as pro-Portuguese.
The first thing they
did was to fire gun shots about 40-50 on the door of Dr. Monteiro. This door helped Dr. Monteiro and his family
as barricade from the onslaught of the gunshots from the criminals, the so called
freedom fighters and also the so called pro-Bharatis from Candolim only and who
earlier enjoyed many benefits from the Potuguese government of Goa thru the goodwill of
Dr. Monteiro. If the door of the house was not closed immediately, there would
be a blood bath in the house of Dr. Monteiro.
These so called pro-Bharati
Freedom Fighters thought they will be the rulers of the village and Goa. But as a matter of fact, in the invaded Goa
under Bharati Raj they suffered too much in the life, all of them died
miserable deaths, their children faced worst of difficulties in their life and
their houses also collapsed without keeping any traces.
These so called
pro-Bharati Goans had no liking for Bharati rule but they had the liking for
their personal vendetta which they tried to acquire. Though they succeeded in some cases but
failed in case of Dr. Gustavo Monteiro.
Similary, they also
failed to finish Fr. Mendonca the Principal of Arpora School when they came to
kill him at Arpora taking advantage of the invasion of Goa. But sensing some tragic outcome, Fr. Mendonca
fled from Arpora School and took shelter in Bastora at Nuns’ Convent thereby
dodging his killers.
There must be more such
incidents in Goa during the invasion period of Goa. Those who are aware of such incidents they
must share with others so that posterity knows what has happened to some sons
of Goa in the process of invasion of Goa by Nehru’s Bharat.
ON 19TH
DECEMBER 1961, GOA WAS NOT LIBERATED BUT INVADED AGAINST THE WISHES OF MAJORITY
OF GOANS. I WANTED PORTUGUESE OUT FROM MY BELEVOED GOA BUT DEFFINETELY NOT THE BHARATI RAJ IN
GOA. BHRATI RAJ IS A RAJ OF FILTH –
CORRUPTION – CHOR – LOOTERS AND BAD GOVERNANCE. I WAS MADE BHARATI CITIZEN NOT
BY MY CHOICE BUT BY FORCE BY THE BHARATI GOVERNMENT HEADED BY THE DICTATOR
NEHRU WHO WITHOUT TAKING US INTO CONFIDENCE INVADED GOA.
