Lisbon: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today thanked Portugal for sharing a digital version of 12,000 documents comprising exchange of letters between Goa and Portugal in the 17th century.
Modi, who is here on a brief visit, said that these letters would help researchers in India.
The Portuguese conquest of Goa occurred when the governor of Portuguese India Afonso de Albuquerque captured the city in 1510.
