no Pnkaj Gota menas whole, entire in Bangla Gota that are used in saris is a marwari word
Usha di PS I am still looking in old dictionaries... new ones donot mention this word "GOTADHARA" ethnic books from rural bengal (in my Limited library at home ) has not yielded anything for the last three days.. I think I'll call some of my old professors and see what they can teach me new and I'll pass it on to you... Unless some our professor members who are bengali come up with the meaning in the meantime. sorry about the delay on my end..
