    Shakuni trumps Pandavas

    The publication of Goa, Daman and Diu mining concessions (Abolition and declaration as mining leases) ACT, 1987, in accordance with Mines and Minerals (Regulation and Development) Act, 1957, replaced the colonial decree of 20 September 1906 which had legislated about mining concessions in Goa (Gazette of India, 1987). The new legislation permitted the conversion of 700 colonial concessions into leases), and limited the exploration to only 90, which does not correspond to the actual situation, scandalous and destructive of the regional eco-system. It was a very generous legislation in its respect for the colonial rights and obligations, even after a political transition marked by invasion and conquest. Obviously, the Government of India did not want to give the Goans and the world at large an impression that could go counter to the image of liberation.
