Odisha has sought a Geographical Indication (GI) tag for its famed brass and bell metal production processes and products which are widespread across the State.
Utkalika, which functions under the State’s Directorate of Handicrafts of Handlooms, has submitted an application with the Registrar of Geographical Indication, Chennai.
The brass and bell metal products are manufactured using brass and scrap material as the main raw material. Multiple clusters across 28 districts in the State have been covered under the application.
