This day is a result of the struggle by Goans to protect their identity.""Goa is a land of scenic beauty and warm-hearted people. The State is enriching India's development path in many sectors. The State is full of opportunities and it is flourishing in all directions. It was the dedication and contributions of people which made it possible for Goa to achieve various developmental projects and programmes that are being initiated and implemented by the state Government," the Goa CM added."On this historic occasion, let us remember and bow down to all the leaders, intellectuals and the people of Goa who have contributed towards the attainment of Statehood. On this day, let us resolve, rededicate ourselves to make Goa 'Swayampurna' and to achieve progress and development in all the spheres in a self-reliant manner," he added.Goa celebrates its Statehood Day annually on May 30.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
