Tracing back thousands of years, the chronicle unfolds the relentless suppression of this identity by Islamic and Christian invaders., the book illuminates a seldom-addressed yet crucial topic-the deliberate and systematic persecution of Hindus, the original inhabitants of Goa, which remains under-discussed even after the liberation of Goa in 1961 from colonial rule.
