A piece of Goan history
Today we observe Goa Liberation Day, commemorating this day in 1961 when Goa became a part of India. Unlike most of India, Goa was previously a Portuguese territory until the Indian army took control of the state. This was after 2 decades of small-scale revolts and uprisings from within and outside the state.
