Description

Maker of Modern Goa: The Untold Story of Pratapsingh Rane is a dynamic and engaging biography
that reveals how he brought in stability and sane, reasoned governance to Goa’s volatile and unstable
politics every time he became CM. In this lucid analysis of Rane’s life, Vijayadevi Rane draws a
new portrait of Goa’s most successful CM. She highlights his contributions during his decade in
power from 1980 to 1990—often called Goa’s Golden Age. He built all-weather roads, dams, bridges,
schools, colleges and hospitals on a war footing. He established the Goa University, started Goa’s
first public bus transport service, built the iconic Kala Academy and began the process of planned
development in the state. Today’s Goa owes an enormous debt to Rane’s tireless efforts. Returning
as the CM in the 1990s and early 2000s, he kept up with his development drive.
