Traditional handloom industry of Thakurgaon is on the verge of extinction due to capital crisis

The traditional handloom industry of Kismat Keshurbari village in Thakurgaon's Bhulli upazila is gradually disappearing. Although handloom work was once active in over five hundred households in the village, many weavers are now changing professions due to capital shortages and various other crises.

To save this dying industry, local weavers have called for various effective initiatives, including easy-term loans. Meanwhile, a BSCIC official stated that a project has been submitted to restore the glorious days of the handlooms.
