It was in Goa, that Narendra Modi was elected/appointed as the campaign manager of the BJP for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. It was in Goa, that Modi was declared as the Prime Ministerial candidate, and was subsequently elected as the Prime Minister. Goa was hailed as the lucky charm for Modi. What did Goa and Goans get in great return? Loss of American support to set up an IIT in the State that has instead gone to Gandhinagar IIT.
