The state of Goa boasts a vast reservoir of artistic talent, with many artists making significant strides in industries as renowned as Mumbai's Bollywood and California's Hollywood. To foster and empower this rich pool of talent, the Goa Government has established the Department of Art & Culture.
Under the able leadership of Goa's Minister of Art & Culture, Shri Govind Gaude Ji, the department is making remarkable strides. To delve deeper into their endeavors, the Incredible Goa Team had the privilege of meeting Mr. Sagun Velip, the Director of the Art & Culture Department. Here are the highlights from the insightful interview.
Commencing his journey in government service in 2004, Mr. Velip traversed through various roles before assuming the esteemed position of Director at the Department of Art & Culture. Reflecting on his nearly two-decade-long tenure with the state government, he reminisced, "I began my journey as a Block Development Officer, dedicating almost eight years to this role, before ascending to the positions of Deputy Collector and SDM of Dharbandora, a responsibility I held for nearly four years." Continuing his administrative journey, he undertook the mantle of Chief Officer for both Quepem Municipality and subsequently Curchorem Municipality.
In 2019, Mr. Velip transitioned to the role of Under Secretary at the Revenue Department, albeit for a brief period of one year. Subsequently, he was reassigned to Canacona as Deputy Collector for a mere nine months before his promotion to the esteemed position of Member Secretary at Ravindra Bhavan Madgaon.
