Recommendations
Applick Ralli and thread work chaddar are made by hand, it took a lot of to manufacture a single
product. Technological usage could be helpful to reduce labor working hour on a product. Lack
of government supervision, less interest of people in these products are damaging this industry.
There is a need to put efforts to market these product in urban cities. Investment of national
brands such as Gul Ahmed, Khadi, J., can be very helpful to boost this handmade culture
oriented industry.
