Mourya Sawant

Last updated

Mourya Sawant (died 1912) was a Hindu Ranes leader who led a revolt against the Portuguese Empire in 1912.

Mourya Sawant led an unsuccessful Goan Hindu revolt against Portuguese colonialism. He was decapitated whilst asleep at his home. Portuguese troops entered his home secretly, and stabbed him and beheaded him. His colleague, Jhil Sawant, was caught when Mourya was beheaded. [1]

The Portuguese ruled over Goa for nearly four hundred years. They ruled Goa with a high degree of repression, and converted Hindus to Catholicism by force. Many Hindus fled to neighboring territories. [2]
