Goa Gazetteer Department

The Gazetteer as it is now understood, presents within a defined range and in a readable manner comprehensive view of the region and of the people. It is a repository of authentic information about the development of life in a district from its geographical, demographical, social historical,, economic, administrative and cultural aspects. It is thus of great value as a reference book to an administrator, scholar and a general reader. The information is classified and arranged into District, State and National Series of Gazetteer according to its scope and general importance.
