Kranti Din at Margao

MARGAO: Kranti Din Samiti (KDS) will hold a day-long programme to commemorate ‘Kranti Din’ or the events of June 18. On that day in 1946, Dr Ram Manohar Lohia had urged Goans to stand against the Portuguese rule in Goa.

The programme will be held at the Ram Manohar Lohia Maidan, Margao, and will follow the official government function at the same venue. KDS will hold many competitions, including essay writing and singing, for children. The biggest offering will be an exhibition of more than 200 photos of freedom fighters and the war against the Portuguese.
Formed by freedom fighters, KDS has been celebrating Kranti Din at the Lohia Maidan since 1969.
