Background: H.H.Sudheendra Thirtha Swamiji once told the community in Kerala that their welfare is likely to be affected if they forgot their roots. He added that all GSBs have from time immemorial had their own family- deities or KulaDevathas in Goa and if these Gods and Goddesses are neglected ,they will be inviting divine wrath. He then identified eight deities and insisted that temples be built for them .The KulaDevathas in Goa and Konkan area lay scattered but here they could all be accommodated in one complex .
