The Goa Assembly on Friday had passed the Goa Bhumiputra Adhikarini Bill, 2021, granting “Bhumiputra [son of the soil]” status to a person residing in Goa at least for 30 years. It was passed along with a host of other Bills, even as opposition MLAs staged a walkout demanding that they be referred to a select committee and not passed “in haste”. Many of the goans are also not happy with this bill. Watch why.
