Regional News: Guntur | BJP demands special package for debt ridden weavers | |
| Weaving is the profession next to agriculture in the state. Unfortunately the weaving profession is totally neglected since the state cannot finance the profession since the hand woven cloth is no more and no longer used by anybody. People started wearing the textiles from Garden, Mafatlal, Arvind, Digjam,Dinesh etc from a very long time.
Therefore it is not possible to compel the people to go for handloom textiles just to take care of the handloom community all over the state. Instead the same weaving community can easily switchover to other professions like construction workers (Rs.300/-per day) goldsmiths (Rs.500/- per day) carpenters (Rs.800/- per day)steel workers, polishers of s.s. vessels, castings of zinc, copper, brass, scrap iron etc. How long the Govt will provide resource in the state budgets every year. The weaving community must realize that their kula vrithi is not providing them even half meal a day. Therefore it is on their own and family interest they must switchover to other professions soon.
