| Jammu needs Craft Bazar to help artisans market, products: Suri | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Dec 9: Post abrogation of Article 370, Jammu needs a Craft Bazar located in the heart of Old Jammu City so that artisans can display and market their craftworks, said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State Executive Member, Raman Suri. The Bazar must cater to the artisans drawn from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and Manipur to Rajasthan, so that they could display their crafts at one place to give Jammu and Kashmir's tourism a fillip. India is a country having diverse cultural and geographic features that can be brought to the foreground in Jammu region through Craft Bazar.
Raman Suri added, the urban and rural communities of craftspersons can display their contemporary works here in Jammu and also interact with each other. This way, products of Jammu including Basohli paintings, embroidery work, woodworks, wood-crafting, Pashmina Shawls and other craftsworks can be brought into the notice of entire world. The artisans can also get a creative platform and learn new techniques from their counterparts.
The BJP leader said that a major portion of Kala Kendra is lying defunct and the place can be best utilised for setting up of a Crafts Bazar that will help artisans display and market their products. Being centrally located, the Kala Kendra can become a hub of activities and dead lying structure can come to life, he said, adding that Jammu must also celebrate the striking display of arts and craftsmanship, contemporary and traditional fine art, and a thoughtfully creative atmosphere at Arts and Crafts Festival annually. |
