‘The Roman Catholic Church is an influential organization in Goa which acts as a religious and spiritual guide to its people. So, Archbishop Fr. Filipe Neri Ferrao prays that diwali may serve to create an environment of peace and harmony, specially, when the whole world is in turmoil.’
The Roman Catholic Church is an influential organization in the state which acts as a religious and spiritual guide to nearly 26 percent of the state's 1.5 million population which is Catholic. The church, which had been repeatedly accused by the Congress of siding with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party in the 2012 state assembly elections, has been of late critical of the incumbent government over issues related to the minority community, especially beef shortage and censure of convent schools.
Urging Hindus and Catholics to unite, Ferrao said: "We - Hindus and Christians - may together with people of all religious traditions and good will, always foster a culture which promotes human ecology."
