Aerial View : Monte Hill Chappel, Margao , Goa
Mary, the mother of Jesus, is known by many titles. In relation to the sorrows in her life, Our Lady of Piety (or Nossa Senhora de Piedade) is one of these titles and the main altar in this chapel is dedicated to her. This chapel is situated in isolation, as if abandoned, with a large ground in front, bound by a few trees. The main gate is closed most of the time and it is best to try your luck at 8:30 AM on Sunday mornings, the day when mass service is organized in Konkani language. It is worth a visit even on other days though, since the hilly walk or drive is soothing and from that vantage point, you could see good views of the city. Here's a tip: Monte Hill is popularly known as Moti Dongor. So, if you are seeking directions from the locals, ask for Moti Dongor.
To visit the chapel, you need to head north from the town center, going past the cemetery and the famous landmark of Hospicio Hospital to your right. You would see a flight of stairs going up with a mural painting. Climb these steps up to get to the site. If you are driving, go past and turn right towards a street called Calcada de Nossa Senhora de Piedade (a sign board shows an arrow towards Monte Nossa Senhora de Piedade) and admire the apartments and large Goan-style houses, most of these with huge courtyards. From the town center, it is an easy walk of 20-30 minutes or a drive or 15 minutes.

Mystery of Spring Water on Monte Hill resolved on 25-05-2011..wmv
Mystery of a Natural Spring opposite Queen's Garden resolved on 25th May, 2011!!!
Ladies & gentlemen, the mysterious source of water sprouting out from the underground finally resolved after nearly 15 mobile/landlines calls to PWD (PHE) Sub-division II, Monte Hill, Margao -- Goa, INDIA, Mr. V. M. Kudchadkar (Assistant Engineer), Mr. Yogesh Dessai (Junior Engineer) & Mr. Vivek Kudchadkar (Junior Engineer) from 23rd May, 2011 to 25th May, 2011. Many thanks to Mr. V. M. Kudchadkar, Mr. Yogesh Dessai, Mr. Vivek Kudchadkar, all the labourers & plumbers and least but NOT the last, Mr. Savio Dias (Reporter of Herald's newspaper) who was very kind and helpful to solve this mysterious source of water.
Now, BELIEVE ME OR NOT! ... This water was gushing out from an 8 to 10 inches Asbestos pipeline carrying water all the way from Selaulim dam, which lies on the Selaulim river at about 5 km from the Sanguem town to the tanks located on Monte Hill, Margao that supplies water to Margao, Fatorda and surrounding areas.
My inquiries revealed that this water was flowing for more than 6 months. When asked why they didn't report it, they said, Who got the time and money to run after officials of PWD? Yes, it's a fact that you have to literally run after not ONLY PWD officials BUT after all the bureaucrats to get anything done and many a times you get the work done ONLY after bribing!
Now, let me make it very clear that NONE of the officers and the staff of PWD (PHE) Sub-division II, Monte Hill, Margao -- Goa, INDIA asked for a bribe from me. I AM VERY PROUD OF THEM. IN SPITE OF LABOUR SHORTAGE THEY DID AN EXCELLENT WORK ALTHOUGH IT HAD TO BE DONE AFTER NEARLY ONE AND HALF DAYS AFTER INFORMING THEM. ALSO, I HAVE LEARNT THAT MANY LABOURERS ARE EMPOLYED ON CONTRACT BASIS WHO EVEN AFTER 10 YEARS OF HARD WORK ARE EARNING ONLY Rs.4000/- A MONTH. EVEN GHATIS WHO ARE WORKING AS SWEEPERS IN MARGAO MUNICIPALITY ARE EARNING NEARLY Rs.6000/- OR MORE!!! WHAT TYPE OF JUSTICE IS THIS TO MY GOAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS???
Lastly, PWD Minister Churchill Alemao and Chief Minister Digambar Kamat have to answer lot of questions, ranging from why Goans are not absorbed in PWD, why the services of Goan labourers & plumbers still NOT regularized who have worked for more than 10 years on CONTRACT BASIS, etc, etc.
Yours sincerely,

RISE
Whilst on holiday in Goa Lyra Productions were privileged to witness Good Friday and Easter Vigil at Monte Nossa Senhora de Piedade and Holy Spirit Church, Margao.
I had always heard from family and friends that Easter is celebrated on a large scale in Goa. I’ve always wanted to witness the Paschal Triduum for myself. It was amazing to see people come together in thousands to commemorate this part of Christ’s journey. To say the scale of the event was BIG is an understatement! It was great capturing the outdoor church services and candlelight processions. A solemn yet up lifting experience.
