As a goan, the worst thing that could have happened to my beautiful state, the Indian government marching in marked the death of Goa, the Portuguese knew what it was to run a country now it’s a state run by a headless chicken
They can’t even run their own country, despite centuries of colonial wealth being amassed they’re now a sick man of Europe being overrun by illegal hordes destined to destroy them, can’t say it isn’t earned.
British legacy is the Parliament, the Indian Railways, secular legal system, equality before law! Let's not compare little Goa ruled by the Portugese to the rest of India!
My dad was on INS Vikrant. Indian navy ships were involved in clearing the islands occupied by portuguese troops and keeping western navies like britain out of our territorial waters. Brit navy wanted to rescue handful of its citizens. Once in they would have never left.

Even now Goa has to have independent. It can be done by opinion poll. We can have our own country. India makes another colony without choice. Portuguese has given a chance to be part of European union.
Well, Goa was originally part of India. The Indians won't allow for independence because others would ask for it. Portugal and EU is different. Portugal was independent, a country. Goa was not.
What stupid. They killed thousands of us. Because they wanted to spread Christianity. Your own ancestors were probably a Hindu who was forced to convert.
And look how freedom from the Portuguese rule worked out for Goa. An egregious fall from grace. A shadow of what it once was. A once unique culture, now all but lost. Went back there in 2022 and was truly appalled by what I saw. It's unrecognisable and been turned into another Indian dump.
@jiti5034 the person might be Portuguese already? But in all fairness, people always reminisce good about the past while forgetting what was bad (unless it was horrifyingly bad).
@jiti5034 not necessarily, this person might have been of Portuguese heritage. But in that case, they are forgetting the inquisition that they imposed on Goa
In 🇮🇳 lNDIA Country GOA State this old History of golden age Facts and real History of Portugal 🇵🇹 young generations must preserves this History 📖 Hats 👑⛑👒🎩 off for this old Madam Sir gentleman and tanky 👍U GOD bless 🙏
Goa is still liberal and educated compared to main land India , even youth first think about visiting and enjoying Goa during their college days ,it’s because of the European culture that still exists , love Goa and Kerala , ❤they have different ethos
European culture 😅😅...Portugese were the most bigoted and obscurantist of Europeans. They carried out Inquisition on Hindus in Goa until the 19th century. Get a grip on history and facts bro!😅
Sure Goa is a great place and most of us love to visit it, but not because it was brutally ruled by Portuguese, because of its beaches which always existed. Care to define different ethos you are referring to? Even the education couldn't save them from becoming Islamic sympathizer (ISIS) and communist state. Even, Al Bagdadi and Bin Laden were highly qualified. Don't spread your hatred and divisiveness hate monger!
People will not recognise the contribution of Nehru in leading this master surgical strike. Some will say Nehru is to be blamed for this success. Shame on them
Tbh it was very easy to overtake Goa because of the sheer size of Indian army compared to Portuguese troops, and they were surrounded. This isn't to discredit our army, its just that it was an easy battle. Nehru however was too non violent and peace loving to be a good wartime leader, and that showed in the 1962 Sino-Indian war. Shastri, even while being non violent was a better wartime leader.
If Portugal poclaims today that they will give portuguese citizenship to the rest of India as in Goa then i am sure there will be a stampeede in front of the portugal embassy in India to subnmit the documents for the portuguese passport that is the hypocricy of these people !
Portugal is the slum house of Europe who would want to go there all the goans take the passport and move to the rest of Europe most of them don't even speak Portuguese so why would they even live there honestly Portugal would be better off as part of Spain
Goa was much better during Portuguese governance. Clean and laws were good. No corruption. Still we are governed by Portuguese civil code. Freedom fighters are right in their context however there is other side of the story also. It will be a big debate. Finally I ask is Goa free? Only Goans can answer it others will hardly know.
Goa had an exodus of people leaving once india occupied, why did so many of the catholics seek asylum in Portugal, UK etc.? why did indian supreme court on two occasions decide it was an invasion?
Portuguese blood runs through the veins of the Goan people. There was no integration at all. Nobody asked the Goans what they wanted. There was a military invasion that nobody wanted. The work of the Portuguese is visible. Today Goa is the richest state in India.

@mihirojha4475 you wrote that millions gave their blood for independence. Firstly: 74187 Indian dollars died during World war 1, roughly 87000 Indian soldiers died during World war 2. Ironically, you decided to refer to the Bengal famine. While none of the victims died in a struggle for Indian independence, you also decided to exaggerate the death toll but what's even worse: the Bengal famine was a direct result of the regional autonomous Bengal government's failure to adhere to the Famine codes procedures. You will probably blame British for the famine while the exact opposite is the case, it's a blatant failure from the Bengal provincial government, which was run exclusively by Bengalis themselves. A shortage caused by hoarding of grains, which could only be ended, when the British sent in the army to break open the warehouses. It was self inflicted and directly proved to the British, that indians weren't capable of governing themselves responsibly.

@@abc_cba You're right, there's no correlation at all, which is why I'd never use the term 'miracle' in conjunction with India's development, mainly because it's too slow, too haphazard, too beset by corruption, delays, and inefficiency, and of course any 'progress' that is made always comes with a cost, ie more pollution!
Goa was annexed by the use of military force

Why?
Goa , Damão and Diu . History cannot be erased, and it was a beautiful , great history from Portugal.
The worst thing that happened in Goa was India invading Goa and colonising and destroying it to this day
@vishveshkhanzode9342 Considering the people of Goa overwhelmingly voted to remain seperate from India, and India took it over anyway, I would call that colonisation.

That was soon after the Portuguese assault.

Because of Portugese Goa is a International tourist centre otherwise it will be a begger states like North India.
Neharu is only responsible for goans suffering.
Who is "Neharu"??? Sounds like a Japanese fisherman!
I am in Goa now for vacation. Glad they are free...these videos help a lot.
As a goan, the worst thing that could have happened to my beautiful state, the Indian government marching in marked the death of Goa, the Portuguese knew what it was to run a country now it’s a state run by a headless chicken
They can’t even run their own country, despite centuries of colonial wealth being amassed they’re now a sick man of Europe being overrun by illegal hordes destined to destroy them, can’t say it isn’t earned.
Thank the Portuguese, Goa is a unique place in all India, with a fascinating culture. Not even the British left that legacy.
British legacy is the Parliament, the Indian Railways, secular legal system, equality before law! Let's not compare little Goa ruled by the Portugese to the rest of India!
At what cost?
Forced conversion and brutuality
True,but I believe the uniform civil code implemented by them in Goa was the most important legacy.
you left us with something else: Inquisition,
My dad was on INS Vikrant. Indian navy ships were involved in clearing the islands occupied by portuguese troops and keeping western navies like britain out of our territorial waters.
Brit navy wanted to rescue handful of its citizens.
Once in they would have never left.
Your dad wasn't on the INS Vikrant, he was a local chai wallah. At least be honest. I used to buy chai from him!
Besides, the Vikrant was a hand-me-down from the Brits, you got their sloppy seconds!! 🤣🤣🤣

Even now Goa has to have independent. It can be done by opinion poll. We can have our own country. India makes another colony without choice. Portuguese has given a chance to be part of European union.
Well, Goa was originally part of India. The Indians won't allow for independence because others would ask for it. Portugal and EU is different. Portugal was independent, a country. Goa was not.

What stupid. They killed thousands of us. Because they wanted to spread Christianity. Your own ancestors were probably a Hindu who was forced to convert.
And look how freedom from the Portuguese rule worked out for Goa. An egregious fall from grace. A shadow of what it once was. A once unique culture, now all but lost.
Went back there in 2022 and was truly appalled by what I saw. It's unrecognisable and been turned into another Indian dump.
ok then you are free to take Portuguese citizenship

Goa is still liberal and educated compared to main land India , even youth first think about visiting and enjoying Goa during their college days ,it’s because of the European culture that still exists , love Goa and Kerala , ❤they have different ethos
European culture ?? Yeah just forget about the massacre and killings they did ?
European culture 😅😅...Portugese were the most bigoted and obscurantist of Europeans. They carried out Inquisition on Hindus in Goa until the 19th century. Get a grip on history and facts bro!😅
People visit Goa for the beaches and cheap liquor. Also for the ‘parties’ (if you know what I mean).
Sure Goa is a great place and most of us love to visit it, but not because it was brutally ruled by Portuguese, because of its beaches which always existed. Care to define different ethos you are referring to? Even the education couldn't save them from becoming Islamic sympathizer (ISIS) and communist state. Even, Al Bagdadi and Bin Laden were highly qualified. Don't spread your hatred and divisiveness hate monger!
@@blandingscastle3729 are you a goan? An from where you got this Information that inquisition was for hindus?
People will not recognise the contribution of Nehru in leading this master surgical strike. Some will say Nehru is to be blamed for this success. Shame on them
Sadly woke nationalists have nothing left except to disgrace our indian leaders who don't match their hateful ideology
Tbh it was very easy to overtake Goa because of the sheer size of Indian army compared to Portuguese troops, and they were surrounded. This isn't to discredit our army, its just that it was an easy battle.
Nehru however was too non violent and peace loving to be a good wartime leader, and that showed in the 1962 Sino-Indian war. Shastri, even while being non violent was a better wartime leader.
Nehru had promised special status for Goa. Never gave it. Today Goa has become a colony of Delhi
Survival of the fittest.
Salute to Charles Darwin.
If Portugal poclaims today that they will give portuguese citizenship to the rest of India as in Goa then i am sure there will be a stampeede in front of the portugal embassy in India to subnmit the documents for the portuguese passport that is the hypocricy of these people !
Portugal is the slum house of Europe who would want to go there all the goans take the passport and move to the rest of Europe most of them don't even speak Portuguese so why would they even live there honestly Portugal would be better off as part of Spain
Goa was much better during Portuguese governance. Clean and laws were good. No corruption. Still we are governed by Portuguese civil code. Freedom fighters are right in their context however there is other side of the story also. It will be a big debate. Finally I ask is Goa free? Only Goans can answer it others will hardly know.
Goa had an exodus of people leaving once india occupied, why did so many of the catholics seek asylum in Portugal, UK etc.? why did indian supreme court on two occasions decide it was an invasion?

@mihirojha4475
you wrote that millions gave their blood for independence. Firstly: 74187 Indian dollars died during World war 1, roughly 87000 Indian soldiers died during World war 2. Ironically, you decided to refer to the Bengal famine. While none of the victims died in a struggle for Indian independence, you also decided to exaggerate the death toll but what's even worse: the Bengal famine was a direct result of the regional autonomous Bengal government's failure to adhere to the Famine codes procedures. You will probably blame British for the famine while the exact opposite is the case, it's a blatant failure from the Bengal provincial government, which was run exclusively by Bengalis themselves. A shortage caused by hoarding of grains, which could only be ended, when the British sent in the army to break open the warehouses. It was self inflicted and directly proved to the British, that indians weren't capable of governing themselves responsibly. Please abstain from posting any further skewed Indian 'history' and educate yourself outside of Indian nationalist propaganda
Our Goa got dumped in India which was Portuguese
See what is Goa today. Has Portuguese people left Goa in this condition? ???What have you done to protect Goa??????

@@leonbarboza1619Mass immigration of foreigners is easier to reverse through deportations than the unlimited internal mass immigration of fellow citizens allowed by Article 19 of the Indian constitution.
My earlier point was, wasn't Goa a part of Portuguese empire and the citizens of Goa citizens of Portugal? This is unlike British empire where the Indians were not British citizens.
In that regard, wasn't the attack on Goa and subsequent surrender an invasion by a new state according to international law? Just asking
Just who all ruled Goa before the Portugese came along in the 16th century? Go read some history before you BS on international law.😅

@@silverghost5752 I read about it. But why do you think it matters?
Before portuguese, adil shah dynasty ruled it. You mean it would have been better to return it to descendants of that dynasty? Or to the descandants of kannada or Marathi empires who were fighting between themselves for that part? These empires were different countries at that time, dont forget.
Now among all these empires another empire comes to trade but get attacked and retaliates and wins. Winner not only keep the land but make it part of their empire and the people its citizens.
So you tell me why not??
