In charge of the budget, the Assembly appropriates money for social programs, agricultural development, infrastructure development, etc. It is also responsible for proposing and levying taxes.


Following the [[Annexation of Goa|end of Portuguese rule]] in 1961, Goa was placed under military administration headed by [[Lieutenant General]] [[Kunhiraman Palat Candeth]] as Lieutenant-Governor. But on 8 June 1962, military rule was replaced by civilian government when the Lieutenant-Governor nominated an informal Consultative Council of 29 nominated members to assist him in the administration of the territory. The first Council met on 24 September 1962 in a meeting open to the public.

Goa Legislative Assembly

The Goa Legislative Assembly is the unicameral legislature of the state of Goa in India. It consists of 40 members. In charge of the budget, the Assembly appropriates money for social programs, agricultural development, infrastructure development, etc. It is also responsible for proposing and levying taxes.

Following the end of Portuguese rule in 1961, Goa was placed under military administration headed by Lieutenant General Kunhiraman Palat Candeth as Lieutenant-Governor. On 8 June 1962, military rule was replaced by civilian government when the Lieutenant-Governor nominated an informal Consultative Council of 29 nominated members to assist him in the administration of the territory. The first Council met on 24 September 1962 in a meeting open to the public.

The Assembly first convened on 9 January 1964 in the Secretariat building (Adil Shah's Palace).[1] Hence, 9 January is marked as "Legislator's Day" every year in Goa.[2][3] In 1987, Goa became an Indian state and the number of seats in the Assembly was increased to 40.

Currently, the Assembly meets in its own Goa State Legislative Assembly Complex in Porvorim, Bardez. The construction of the building began on 22 January 1994, and its completion was inaugurated by the then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on 5 March 2000.
