Kasarpal

Kasarpal is a town in the Bicholim region of Goa, which is in the North Goa district. It is about 14 km from the town of Mapusa.
The original name of the village is mentioned as "Pallika" in a Copper-plate inscription dated 1436 AD, which is in the possession of the Archaeology department of Goa. It was also known as "Kasarpal" because of its original inhabitants who were coppermiths. The village was later gifted to the Shet by a certain Brahmin named "Nagadeva". Kasarpal is the site of the 800-year-old Shri Kalikadevi Temple. The village also houses shrines dedicated to Mahadev and Bhumika.
