Handicrafts in this country are an important part of our rich cultural heritage, which serve the aesthetic needs of man and provide a vehicle for his urge for self-expression. The real significance of handicrafts lies in the newness and surprise of each object. Thus to promote handicrafts based activities in rural as well as urban areas the Society has taken step in introducing a training-cum- production centre (TPC) for upgradation of skills of the existing craftsperson and also imparting skills to new craftsperson with the objective of expanding the production base of crafts especially those with high market/export demand and or reviving languishing crafts. The training programme envisages various measures to develop expand and sustain marketing of handicrafts with objective of augmenting the employment and income of
craftsperson.
