Seven products from Odisha get GI tag.
Jan 04, 2024

As many as seven items from Odisha received the GI tag by the Chennai-based Geographical Indications Registry on Tuesday. With these new entrants, the total number of GI-registered products in Odisha rose to 25.
The new items include the Odisha Khajuri Guda, Dhenkanal Magji, Similipal Kai Chutney, Nayagarh Kanteimundi brinjal, Dongria Kondh embroidery shawl, Koraput Kalajeera rice and the paintings of Lanjia Saora.
 
'It is a matter of pride that seven products from Odisha were registered in the GI registry. Each of these products hold a distinct identity deeply rooted in the state’s cultural fabric. All the GI products need to be marketed and promoted across the state and outside and made available in shops,' cultural and GI researcher Anita Sabat said.
She added, 'GI owners, users and facilitators must ensure correct representation through proper research and documentation by stakeholder consultation and sharing information about the correct geographical area, number of producers, artisans, weavers and farmers, which will make the process of GI registration easier.'
 
'As these products gain official recognition on the national stage, the state government must launch them in the global market,' Manas Mohapatra, an expert in cultural affairs said.
