The '''Partido Indiano''' (Indian Party) was one of the oldest political parties of [[Goa]]. As per a decree passed in 1865,{{Clarify|reason=Few readers will know what the decree mentioned here was; it should be Wikilinked.|date=June 2023}} in Lisbon, natives of Portuguese colonies were now allowed to form their own political parties. Taking advantage of this, a small section of the [[Goan]] [[Roman Catholic Kshatriya|Chardo]] elite from [[Orlim]], seeking political and civil rights and founded the Partido Indiano. It enjoyed mass support particularly from the [[Goan Catholics|Catholic]] majority. <br />
The party was a response to the pro-establishment [[Partido Ultramarino]] (Overseas Party).<ref>{{Cite journal |date=2011-08-13 |title=The Partido Indiano and the September Revolt of 1890 in Goa |url=https://www.epw.in/journal/2011/33/special-articles/partido-indiano-and-september-revolt-1890-goa.html |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Partido Indiano Archives |url=https://www.oscardenoronha.com/tag/partido-indiano/ |access-date=2023-07-31 |website=Oscar de Noronha |language=en-US}}</ref><br />
