The correct answer is Option 3, 1510. This means that Goa was captured by the Portuguese in the year 1510. It is important to note that Goa was a Portuguese colony for more than four centuries, until it was annexed by India in 1961. The Portuguese first arrived in India in 1498 with Vasco da Gama`s expedition, but it was only in 1510 that they were able to capture and establish control over Goa. This marked the beginning of Portuguese rule in Goa, which lasted until India gained independence from British colonial rule in 1947.
