 Portuguese rule |
 |
Portugal, in contrast, resisted diplomatic solutions. It viewed its continued possession of its Indian enclaves as a matter of national pride[114] and, in 1951, it amended its constitution to convert its possessions in India into Portuguese provinces.[115] In July 1954, an uprising in Dadra and Nagar Haveli threw off Portuguese rule.[114] The Portuguese attempted to send forces from Daman to reoccupy the enclaves, but were prevented from doing so by Indian troops. Portugal initiated proceedings before the International Court of Justice to compel India to allow its troops access to the enclave, but the Court rejected its complaint in 1960, holding that India was within its rights in denying Portugal military access.[116] In 1961, the Constitution of India was amended to incorporate Dadra and Nagar Haveli into India as a Union Territory.[117]
