The correct answer is C. Portuguese.
Goa was a Portuguese colony from 1510 to 1961. The Portuguese first arrived in Goa in 1510, when Afonso de Albuquerque captured the city from the Bijapur Sultanate. Goa became the capital of Portuguese India and was an important center of Portuguese trade and culture. The Portuguese ruled Goa for over 450 years, and during that time, the city was transformed into a Portuguese city. The Portuguese built churches, palaces, and other buildings in the city, and they also introduced their language, religion, and culture to the local population.
In 1961, India invaded Goa and annexed the territory. The Portuguese government protested the invasion, but they were unable to do anything to stop it. Goa has been a part of India ever since.
The other options are incorrect. The British ruled India from 1858 to 1947, the Dutch ruled Indonesia from the 17th to the 19th centuries, and the French ruled parts of India from the 17th to the 19th centuries.
