PORVORIM: Is Goa government sleeping, while Karnataka applies for Kaavi art GI tag? The Kavi art was brought to Goa by the Portuguese. PM Narendra MOdi praised Sagar Mule for expounding this art in his 84th Edition of Man ki baat, but Goa government is sleeping, as Karnataka Government has applied for a GI tag for this art, Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai said. He called on the govt to hasten and apply for the GI tag.


Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai mocked the government as Karnataka has applied for the GI tag for Kaavi art. The kaavi art is said to have originated in Goa and found its way into coastal Karnataka, Maharashtra and Kerala through the Saraswat Brahmin community that migrated from Goa to the coastal districts of these states. They later built the temples for their deities and embellished them with Kaavi paintings.
