Review

  • Category:History of Portugal: lots to remove there
  • Template:Regions of Portugal: statistical (NUTS3) subregions and intercommunal entities are confused; they are not the same in all regions, and should be sublisted separately in each region: intermunicipal entities are sometimes larger and split by subregions (e.g. the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon has two subregions), some intercommunal entities are containing only parts of subregions. All subregions should be listed explicitly and not assume they are only intermunicipal entities (which accessorily are not statistic subdivisions but real administrative entities, so they should be listed below, probably using a smaller font: we can safely eliminate the subgrouping by type of intermunicipal entity from this box).

Format like Oklahoma

The article on Oklahoma state of United States is a featured article. It has a well laid structure. Following the same pattern will make this article better. Please help me expand this article based on that structure. I am reorganising the article so that it's readability is improved. 11:36, 15 June 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by AJ.iitm (talk • contribs)

WP:INDIA Banner/Dadra and Nagar Haveli Addition

Note: {{WP India}} Project Banner with Dadra and Nagar Haveli workgroup parameters was added to this article talk page because the article falls under Category:Dadra and Nagar Haveli or its subcategories. Should you feel this addition is inappropriate , please undo my changes and update/remove the relavent categories to the article -- Amartyabag TALK2ME 09:35, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Prime Minister

The article states that Mr. Badlani was made the Prime Minister for a day so that he could act as a Head of State. However, under international law, a Prime Minster is not a Head of State, but a Head of Government. NelsonLB (talk) 02:15, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Concerns about the Freedom movement section

While I commend this expansion[1] of history section(it could be split into a sepearte article). I could not help but notice that it overplays the role played by the RSS. The reason for my concern is this article from Prabhakar Sinari (one of the leaders of the movement); in 2003 which says that the role of the RSS in liberating D&NH was "at best, marginal". --Deepak D'Souza 04:25, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Deepak,

I respect your views. I agree with you that the 'Liberation of D & N' itself can be a separate article. But I disagree with you on the role of organizations. I don't think any organisation's role is being overplayed. It covers the role of all players from a neutral source. But since you have quoted an article written by Prabhakar Sinari himself, let us consider the following.

"Desai was against the RSS organisation as well, he took the risk of bringing in the Sangh volunteers and successfully managed to camouflage their identity from Mr. Nagarwala till the liberation of Silvassa."

— page 51, Dadra and Nagar Haveli: past and the present, by P S Lele

It is clear that RSS volunteers were told to hide their identities by leaders like Appasaheb Karmalkar and Jayanti Bhai Desai, so that their identities do not irk the Indian authorities especially DIG of Special Reserve Police, Mr Nagarwalla. But the identities would have become amply clear by the time they captured Silvassa. Consider this

"By this time, Mr. Nagarwala also came to know about the identity of the RSS workers on the scene. He accepted it as a lesser evil."

— page 56, Dadra and Nagar Haveli: past and the present, by P S Lele

I am not sure who all knew explicitly of the identity of the volunteers. Atleast a few in the Azad Gomatak Dal were aware of that. Mr. Mohan Ranade, one of the leaders of Azad Gomantak Dal (the same group to which Mr Prabhakar Sinari belongs), who was part of the Dadra Nagar Haveli liberation and after that faced solitary confinement in Portugal prison for 14 years, has the following to say about this

"Almost all the volunteers brought by Sudhir Phadke, Rajabhau Wakankar and Nana belonged to Rastriya Swayam Sevak Sangh. Their number now rose to one hundred. We were only twenty-five who had gone from Goa. Sudhir Phadke and others could have done the job all by themselves without taking our organization’s name or our help. But, the political exigencies were not permitting them to do so. After having some breakfast we grabbed our weapons and started to march in the direction of Silvassa. There was a feeling of joy in the air."

— page 40, Struggle Unfinished, Mohan Ranade

Clearly, the RSS volunteers had more than a "marginal role" as you claim. Going by Mr Mohan Ranade, whatever has been said in the article actually underplays the role of RSS and not overplays it. So was Mr Prabhakar Sinari unaware of the identities of the RSS volunteers? Was he kept in dark by his own comarades in the Azad Gomantak Dal? Don't know, Can't say.

Secondly, Mr Prabhakar Sinari's basis of argument is Indian Government's affidavit saying no Indian nationals were involved. We must understand that the affidavit was India's official line. Officially Indian authorities would also deny that DIG of SRP Nagarwalla had any role to play in the liberation. Mr Sinari, in his enthusiasm, himself contradicts this when he says that few volunteers of the RSS were with them. One of propositions can be true; RSS volunteers from Pune were not there at all or few of them were there - Both can't be true at the same time.

With due respects to Mr Prabhakar Sinari, and acknowledging his role too, his blanket 'I did it all' statement, where he does not even mention the role of other allies like the NMO, leave alone the RSS, does not hold much water. Especially when he is contradicted substantially by his own comrades and also by himself. I think we should go by neutral sources.

We can divide the page as you have suggested and expand them both further with more sources. ---nihar (talk) 05:47, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Independent country

Was independence recognized by Portugal or any other country in 1954? Goustien (talk) 20:22, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not by Portugal until 1975. I doubt it was recognised as a country by any other, not come across any sources so far. But India did not annex it till it invaded the other Portuguese colonies in 1961. --Deepak D'Souza (talk) 09:51, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

change the map

Please change the map of India depicted in this article. The map depicts Jammu & Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh as not parts of India. This is an insult to the whole Indians. Unless you change it, Wikipedia may face a ban in the country. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.201.64.195 (talk) 10:58, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Liberation

I didn't edit the article because there needs to be discussion before this change, but in an encyclopedia there needs to be neutrality, controversial words like "liberation" (normaly used from Indian point of view) or "invasion" (normaly used from Portuguese point of view) should be mellowed into non-emotional terms for an unadulterated encyclopedic experience. This also seems to be the case in Goa, Daman and Diu articles, so it is a larger issue. What do others here think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FernãoMendesPinto (talk • contribs) 23:30, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
