hi remy,
thanks for your reply.. i know about the hci website...and as i understand i would be eligible on the basis that im born in india...but when i approached them,they say that i cant get pio or oci just by birth!!! altough it clearly states that any person born in india is eligible....but they wont listen.. so i guess you have indian blood..???? manu Scuse me for butting in but can I ask a question? Manu where are you living now? If you were born in India I think that you are entitled to Indian citizenship by right of birth place. In which case, depending on your current location and what citizenship you hold you may have a case for dual citizenship. Give us some more details. Regards Tony |

Are your parents or grandparents Indian? Do you live /reside in India or UK? Was your birth registered and if so do you have an indian birth certificate? (hope this question doesnt offend,its just i know a lot of indians that dont have a BC) I am trying to work out a possible solution for you hence all the questions. Regarding your question, yes...my father is indian although i was born and raised here in the UK. Regards, Remy |

Re: Press quotes
An Indian's view on foreigners owning property in India :
http://www.oheraldo.in/pagedetails.asp?nid=2539&cid=13 Correct decision Chief Secretary Andrea DeMello, Bahrain In regards to the article published in your esteemed paper, dtd Oct 6th, ‘Nightmare for foreigners buying Goan homesâ€, I for one am glad that the government has finally taken such a stance. We, as Indians go abroad & find that our Indian citizenship has little or almost no value when it comes to purchasing properties abroad & accordingly we too have to adhere to the respective countries rules. If the United States, requires a minimum of 5 yr residence for green card holders prior to issuing citizenship & if the entire gulf region has their requirements for purchase of freehold property, then why not India too.??!! Kudos to the Indian/ Goan Government. It’s time the whole world stopped looking down on us & we make our demands more qualitative. © M/s Herald Publications Pvt Ltd, P.O.Box 160, Rua San Tome, Panjim-Goa 403001 |

Kittur has alleged that five people, who are restrained by a court not to enter the property where Jazz House is situated, on September 20, 2007, were involved in assaulting his mother, the land lady Pia Lobo and two other women. My mother, along with the others, had gone to the place to spruce it up for the coming season, he maintained. The five people entered the place in spite of two armed police guards placed at the entrance, he asserted. The two never budged a single inch when my people and mother were being assaulted, he stated. © M/s Herald Publications Pvt Ltd, P.O.Box 160, Rua San Tome, Panjim-Goa 403001.

what I heard was that there was some civil dispute about a [possibly altered] lease.

what a plonker :eek: http://www.oheraldo.in/pagedetails.asp?nid=3192&cid=10 Thanks for the link, This helps show how desperate some people are in trying to purchase a bit of Goa and what lengths they are prepared to go to! Unbelievable! Let this be a lesson to anyone out there thinking of doing something as ludicrous as this! Regards, Remy |
