Benarasi Silk
by Ahi Sen on Apr 21, 2007 03:51 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

The West Bengal Government under the left Front has done everything to protect the weavers of west Bengal and no weaver in West Bengal has left the job like Kullu in Benaras. It is the successive Governments in Uttar Pradesh who are responsible for decay of such a rich craftmanship that the weavers of benaras were.

Hi Ahi Sen,
It is not a time of political war. Have you read - "Who moved my cheese". It happens. Change happens. In the name of protectionism, should we be proud, if any city thrives on horse carts? We should not bring the Govt. in this picture.
