Carnival celebrations are round the corner

Our traditional village Carnival Khell Tiatr called folk plays in Konkani attract lots of Niz Goenkars and people come together and watch the Carnival khell with lots of fun and joy. This year due to Covid protocols there will be no floats on political themes, commercial floats or alcohol ads.  We  also request our politicians to help and support our young generation to show our Goan culture and tradition in the Carnival floats and sponsor Khell Tiatr in the village for entertainment. Viva Goencho Carnival.
