The Padampur Sub-Division in Bargarh District of Orissa and Agalpur Block in Bolangir District Are Perennially Drought-Prone Areas

Title: Need to accord clearance to Aung Dam Project of Orissa and also to provide adequate funds for quick execution of work. SHRI PRASANNA ACHARYA (SAMBALPUR): The Padampur sub-Division in Bargarh district of Orissa and Agalpur Block in Bolangir district are perennially drought-prone areas. The Padampur sub-Division is adjacent to the KBK districts. There is no major or medium irrigation scheme in the area even after 52 years of Independence, although a number of rivers are flowing through this area. Keeping in view the acute water problem, the Government of Orissa had initiated a scheme for a river dam in the river Aung which originates in Madhya Pradesh and flows through this area of Orissa. This is known as the Aung Dam project. Strangely, this project has been lying without sanction of the concerned Ministry for the last several decades on many pretexts. If this project, which would be a major irrigation project, materialises, more than 50,000 hectares of agricultural land will get irrigation facilities. This sub-Division, which is a backward area in the State, having majority of the population of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, is not having a single industry and primarily the people depend on agriculture. The Aung Dam project, if executed, will change the whole economy of the area which would be a major boost for the economic development of the State as a whole. I would, therefore, urge upon the Union Government to accelerate the process of giving clearance to this project and to provide necessary funds for quick execution of work. .

Our joint paper critiques and appraises the cultural politics of textile revitalization projects. The format follows a conversational style as we exchange thoughts about our very different experiences as a folklorist doing fieldwork in Colorado’s San Luis Valley and as a weaver and participant observer involved in a weaving workshop located in the Bargarh district of Orissa, India. One of our chief mutual interests, conditioned by the assumption that “all tradition is change,” analyzes the political bases for craft-inspired workshops that attempt to revive traditional arts as economic redevelopment projects.

In this sense handloom has been an oldest industry of the world. From ancient period to the modern period handloom industry is closely connected with the economic growth of the land. So to say the Handloom Industry has a major role in the economic growth of India also. India has a rich, diverse and unique handloom tradition since long. History speaks that, weaving has been an extremely developed craft since Indus Valley Civilisation. From Historical records it is evident that, India is a country where dyeing, printing and embroidering has been a continuing process. The array of handloom textiles varies in different regions of India because of its Geography, Climate, Local Culture, Social Customs and availability of raw materials. A number of raw materials like cotton, silk, jute and bamboo etc. are used for creating fabrics in India. But silk and cotton predominates the Indian weaving tradition.

Handloom in Odisha: an Overview
AEGAEUM JOURNAL ISSN NO: 0776-3808 HANDLOOM IN ODISHA: AN OVERVIEW Shruti Sudha Mishra* ICSSR Doctrol Fellow, Dept. of Business Administration, Sambalpur University, Odisha, India. [email protected] Dr. A. K. Das Mohapatra** Professor Dept. of Business Administration, Sambalpur University, Odisha, India. [email protected] Volume 8, Issue 8, 2020 http://aegaeum.com/ Page No: 134 AEGAEUM JOURNAL ISSN NO: 0776-3808 HANDLOOM IN ODISHA: AN OVERVIEW Abstract Handloom is an ancient cottage industry. In Odisha hand-woven fabrics have existed since beyond the reach of memory. This sector involves large number of artisans from rural and semi-urban areas, most of which are women and people from economically disadvantaged groups. Some of the strengths of this industry are availability of cheap and abundant labour, use of local resources, low capital investment, unique craftsmanship in manufacturing of the products and increasing appreciation by international consumers. It is important to note that despite such unique characteristics, the industry comprises a meager proportion of Indian exports in global market, thus calling for efforts to promote and channelize the offerings of the industry to tap its hidden potential. Therefore the present study has been undertaken with an aim to discuss the history of handloom in context to Odisha, its cultural importance, and contribution of handloom to the economic development of the weaving community of Odisha. Keywords: Odisha, handloom, weavers, economic development ***** 1: Introduction The glory and cultural vastness of Indian handloom industry has always been a topic of great discussion. Among all the beautiful handlooms having their regional importance, Odisha handloom is the one chosen for the present study.
