Pernem taluk, Administrative sub-district in North Goa, India

The northmost region of Goa spans between the Terekhol River at the Maharashtra border and the Chapora River near Bardez sub-district.

The territory belonged to the Rajas of Sawantwadi who appointed the Deshprabhu family as local administrators before it became part of modern India.

The population communicates in multiple languages with Konkani at 54 percent and Marathi at 40 percent, while maintaining Hindu traditions at 88 percent.

The region connects to major urban centers through National Highway 17 and the Konkan Railway system with a station 4 kilometers from Pernem town.

Two natural waterfalls grace the landscape, one near Mauli Temple at Sarmale and another at the Mulvir Temple in the village of Malpe.
