Dear valued visitors, we have been receiving several news items pertaining to Konkanni Christian community. Since ours is a site which basically caters to the Konkanni cultural needs, so far we had refused to publish this.  But, after considering lot of enthusiasm and interest among our people to cover this type of news, we have introduced now a separate news column, which in future, will publish merely news related to Konkanni Christian community. Now this page is on an experimental basis.  We invite `local news` along with the photographs, if available, from Konkanni Communities all over the world. Please send at our email:    localnews@daijidubai.com.
