It is really nice to see that the arrangements for the ongoing 18th St Francis Xavier's Exposition at Old Goa by the church authorities and the government of Goa perfectly done with clean environment, pilgrim village, volunteers to guide and help the devotees. The people from various parts of India, not only Christians but Hindus and Muslims and those from around the world have come to Goa for the Exposition to get blessings of Saint Francis Xavier. Our Goa CM Pramod Sawant seems to be a confused person who always thinks that Catholic churches in Goa are undertaking forcible conversions which is totally wrong. Everybody has a right to practise the religion that he or she wants to. In the Christian community there are so many groups but the government targets only the Roman Catholic authorities. Among Hindus and Muslims too, the choice of worship is theirs. So keep your faith strong and and trust in God and worship him from the bottom of your heart without any fear, confusion and hate. We Goans have always taken part in each other's religious festivals so don't try to break our faith and trust.
