The 'Srijan: Voices from the Loom' program was initiated by the Ministry of Textiles to recognize the resilience, creativity, and essential role of female artisans in preserving traditional weaving practices. The event brought together over 100 women weavers from six different handloom clusters across the country. During the gathering, an anthology documenting their inspiring life journeys and contributions to the sector was officially released. This initiative aligns with government efforts to empower women in the traditional crafts sector and promote indigenous handloom products on a national stage.
