Dharbandora is a sub-division and Taluka of Goa, India.
History
The creation of a new Dharbandora Taluka, the 12th Taluka in Goa, was announced by the Chief Minister of Goa Digambar Kamat on 25 March 2010, in his Budget Speech before the Goa Legislative Assembly.[3] A Committee chaired by the Revenue Minister of Goa Jose Philip D'Souza steered the creation of the Taluka.[4]
By a notification dated 16 March 2011, the Government of Goa notified the 18 villages of Aglote, Bandoli, Camarconda, Caranzol, Codli, Colem, Cormonem, Darbandora, Gangem, Molem, Moissal, Piliem, Sancordem, Sangod, Sigao, Sonauli, Surla and Usgao to incorporate the Dharbandora Taluka.[5] Gangem and Usgao were carved out from the Ponda Taluka while all the remaining villages were earlier a part of the Sanguem Taluka.[6] However, there was resistance from the people of Gangem and Usgao villages against the decision of including both villages in the Dharbandora Taluka.[7] Vide another notification dated 20 May 2011, the villages of Gangem and Usgao were reverted to Ponda taluka.[8][9]
Dharbandora Taluka came into existence as a part of the South Goa district on 4 April 2012.[10] Five panchayats, Dharbandora, Kirlapal-Dabhal, Collem, Mollem and Sancorda from the Sanguem sub-division consist the sub-division. The sub-division at present has a population of 30,000 to 40,000 people. [11]
Ganjem and Usgao from Ponda sub-division were not added to this Taluka due to opposition, and the rest were from Sanguem sub-division.[11]
Census Data 2011
There is no reliable data for the Demographics and Literacy rate in this new Sub-Division of Goa. The primary reason is because it came into existence after the 2011 census.
