Panaji, Goa
Government Polytechnic at Panaji-Goa grew out of an escola ( as an Institute is called in the Portuguese language ) in the earlier colonial era known La escola de industrial el commercial de Goa. This was the sole repository of technical manpower, needed for the industries of yore in Goa and elsewhere. In 1963, Government Polytechnic was granted accreditation to conduct initially three Diploma Programmes under the affiliation of the Board of Technical Examinations- Government of Maharastra.
