Two women's organizations in Goa have voiced strong opposition to the proposed 'Tales of Kamasutra & Christmas Celebration' event scheduled for December. The groups are concerned about the event's potential impact on the region's cultural values and the safety of women. They have called on authorities to deny permission for the festival, arguing that it could promote obscenity and exploitation.

The controversy surrounding the "Tales of Kamasutra" festival highlights the ongoing tensions between preserving traditional values and promoting tourism in Goa. Goa, known for its beaches and nightlife, has often been a center for cultural clashes due to its diverse population and significant influx of tourists.

Critics of the festival argue that it could tarnish Goa's reputation and lead to an increase in crime and harassment against women. Supporters, on the other hand, claim that it would boost tourism and generate revenue for the local economy. They also argue that the festival is a celebration of art and culture and should not be censored.

The women's groups have organized protests and submitted petitions to government officials, urging them to take action. They have also launched a social media campaign to raise awareness about their concerns and garner support from the public. The local government is currently reviewing the application for the festival and is expected to make a decision soon. The decision will likely take into account the concerns raised by the women's groups, as well as the potential economic benefits of the festival.
