Goa Liberation Day is observed every year on December 19. It is celebrated in commemoration of the Indian armed forces annexing Portuguese-ruled Goa. Goa was liberated from 450 years of Portuguese rule on December 19, 1961. It was also the day when India got free from European rule. The Portuguese refused to leave Goa even after India’s independence in 1947. The government held a series of diplomatic talks with the Portuguese but did not take any military action. Later, when everything failed, the government finally took military action and liberated Goa from the rule.
