The pandemic nearly brought the world to a standstill. Those of us who lived during the pandemic witnessed unknown times. The fear of getting infected of a very contagious disease that could even cause death was writ large on people’s faces. People were confined to their homes. They stepped out only when absolutely necessary, e.g. to buy provisions or to access medical services; or if they were serving in essential services like hospitals, security and police, etc. Economic activities were down to minimum. Means of public transportation were halted, all educational institutions, industries and work establishments were closed.

  • Managing the Weavers' Crisis of Dhanekhali Handloom Industry
    The International Journal Of Engineering And Science (IJES) || Volume || 4 || Issue || 7 || Pages || PP -60-68|| 2015 || ISSN (e): 2319 – 1813 ISSN (p): 2319 – 1805 Managing the Weavers’ Crisis of Dhanekhali Handloom Industry Sayani Das Research Scholar, Department of Geography, Vidyasagar University, W.B., India Member Faculty, Department of Geography, Asutosh College, Kolkata-700026,W.B., India --------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT----------------------------------------------------------- Dhanekhali Handloom Industry of West Bengal enjoys a prominent place in the handloom map of rural India. The place has lent its name to the cotton weaved tant sari it produces. But recently due to various reasons, it is losing its importance. This study is aimed to address these reasons by investigating the socio-economic conditions and problems of the weavers and analysing the overall nature, production method and structure of the regional weaving co-operative society. Both pre and post-field studies, including the collection of primary and secondary data from the Dhanekhali Community Development Block and different co-operative staff are carried out to unearth the root cause of the problem and to perceive the impact on the socio-economic health of the weaving community. It is found that the industry is dominated by the male workers with very low educational profile. Income is paltry and that too in an irregular way, waxing and waning with the number of product output. This poor financial condition of the weavers finds its mark on the dismal condition of the whole industry. The situation is far more aggravated by the rocketing expenditure costs, the cost of raw materials and lack of domestic market and demand.

The economy of the state is in shambles and society is fractured by communalism. This decadence marks a departure from the Bengal that was the depository of rich legacy in culture, science, spirituality and economy. Great sons of the land impacted the nation’s destiny by their unmatched contributions. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Ramakrishna Parmahans, Swami Vivekananda, Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar, Bankim Chandra, Rabindranath Tagore, Subhash Chandra Bose, Dr. Syamaprasad Mookerjee and Trailokya Nath Chakravarty are a few names among many more who left an indelible mark on India’s history. During the freedom struggle Bengal was a breeding ground of revolutionaries. Why does West Bengal present such a miserable picture now? Political brinkmanship is a major reason for its fall. Both Marxists and Mamata have destroyed it. Punjab and Bengal suffered the most during Partition, with killings of innocents driven by religious frenzy becoming their horrifying narrative. Pro-Pakistan elements, realizing that mere propaganda was not enough to create Muslim mass support for Pakistan used conspiracy theories to convince Muslims that poverty, unemployment and illiteracy were the handiwork of Hindus; the colonial regime backed this propaganda by forming the one-man Hunter Committee to ‘ascertain’ the reasons of Muslim backwardness.
