in India where more than 5,00,000 power loom are working producing
about 600 Crores Mts. of cloth i.e. about 1/3rd of the man made filament

development plans of the Textiles and it is beyond doubt that the
self accomplished progress of the industry has attracted the attention
of the ever changing world to this decentralised industry at Surat. |

on common platform and establish the Federation of Indian Art Silk
Weaving Industry (FIASWI).FIASWI celebrated its Silver Jubilee last
year. The Association has the honour to chair FIASWI first in 1981
