Some about SILVASSA:

Silvassa is the capital of the Indian Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli.

During Portuguese rule, Silvassa was also known as Vila de Paço d'Arcos, after the town of the

same name near Lisbon (Paço de Arcos, Oeiras). The city has a large number of factories and

industries providing significant government revenue, which allows the city to maintain a low level

of taxation. The city is one of the hundred Indian cities competing in a national level competition

to get the funds under Narendra Modi's flagship Smart Cities Mission. Silvassa will be competing

for the one of last 10 spots against 20 cities from across India.

Silvassa is a town on the Daman Ganga River in western India, bordering the state of

Gujarat. Formerly under Portuguese rule, it’s known for its varied tribal heritage, explored at

the Tribal Cultural Museum through objects like masks and musical instruments. Bal

Udyan Park has kids' play areas. Northwest in Dadra, Vanganga Lake Garden is a

Japanese-style island garden with boats for hire on the surrounding water.

HISTORY:Until the end of the 19th century, Silvassa was only a small village. The growing importance

of Silvassa started in 1885, when the Portuguese Administration decided to transfer the seat

of Nagar Haveli to the city, which until then had been in Darará. By decree of 11 February

1885, Silvassa was created as a town, with the name of Vila de Paço d'Arcos. However, the

original name prevailed and the town continued to be mainly known as Silvassa and referred to as

such in official documents.

INDUSTRIES:Far from being a tribal region, it has now developed into an industrial hub with major industrial

companies setting up manufacturing bases in the region. Its initial tax-free status granted by the

Indian government to boost industrial investment in the Union Territory of Dadra and

Nagar Haveli has contributed to the region's industrial growth.
