Abstract

Handloom weaving is our country’s cultural heritage and symbolizes the ability of the weavers to design intricate and attractive products using handloom. These products are flexible and versatile, permitting experimentation and innovations. As per the Government report it is estimated that it occupies an important place in contributing to and raising the Indian economy and provides direct employment to 65 lakhs and to millions indirectly. Sustainable livelihood could be structured by intersecting development through innovative studies. This helps in thinking in a new way about skill, work, production, marketing, etc. Especially vulnerable groups such as poor and illiterate weavers suffer from anxiety due to extra-long hours of work, high stress, lack of financial and social support, and ignorance. Competition among industries, inability to purchase raw materials, etc. are other conditions that mislead weavers who grab minimum profits due to middlemen.
