It was a reference point for the vessels coming from Europe at that time. This old Portuguese fort stands on the beach south of Candolim, at the shore of the Mandovi River. It was initially tasked with defense of shipping and the nearby Bardez sub-district. A freshwater spring within the fort provided water supply to the ships that used to stop by. This is how the fort got its name: Aguada, meaning watery in the Portuguese language. Crews of passing ships would often visit to replenish their freshwater stores. On the fort stands a four-story Portuguese lighthouse, erected in 1864 and the oldest of its kind in Asia. Built in 1612, it was once the grandstand of 79 cannons. It has the capacity of storing 2,376,000 gallons of water, one of the biggest freshwater storages of the time in whole of Asia. This fort is divided in two segments: the upper part acted as fort and watering station, while the lower part served as a safe berth for Portuguese ships.

  • Hon'ble Speaker Sir, 'Even Thinking of the Least Good of Others Gradually
    Hon’ble Speaker Sir, ‘Even thinking of the least good of others gradually instills into the heart, the strength of a lion.’ With these words of Swami Vivekananda, I rise to present the Budget 2015-16 to this August House. 1. My Government has now completed 137 days in Office since 8th November, 2014 with the firm belief that the first claim on development belongs to the poor. 2. Sir, Goa’s Per Capita Income is now amongst the highest in the country and our Human Development Indicators including literacy, maternal and infant mortality rates and life expectancy at birth are much better than other states and the national average. 3. In order to achieve still higher GDP and further improve our quality of life, we are laying ever greater emphasis on “Sabka Saath – Sabka Vikas” so as to ensure that the fruits of development fully percolate down to the less privileged and vulnerable sections of the society. 4. While the Government has made the social welfare initiatives much stronger, both in terms of accessibility and equity, we would dedicate the rest of our term to further strengthen them by giving a boost to the economy in areas of:- (i) Infrastructure, (ii) Sustainable Mining, (iii) Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries (iv) Water Resources, (v) Tourism, (vi) Education and skill development, (vii) Affordable Housing (viii) Swach Bharat Nital Goa under Mission Mode, (ix) Women & child development, (x) Manufacturing, knowledge based industry and services sector 1 5.
