External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar arrived in Georgia’s capital Tbilisi and was received by the country’s Foreign Minister, David Zalkaliani upon his arrival. Jaishankar handed over the holy relics of St Queen Ketevan to the Minister. St. Queen Ketevan was a 17th century Georgian Queen who attained martyrdom. Her relics were found in 2005 at St. Augustine Convent in Old Goa, on basis of medieval Portuguese records. They're believed to be brought to Goa in 1627. India has gifted one part of the relics to Georgia.
