Abstract

Present paper is on mouza Chak Harharia, which is famous for silk weaving in Murshidabad, West Bengal, India. The weavers of Murshidabad are both intelligent and genius in their art, though they live in a very plain simple manner. Unfortunately they suffer from scarcity in every material requirement. From time-immemorial fine products from these weavers have earned wealth for India. If both public awareness and Govt. initiatives can nurture the art and artists properly their products will earn enough foreign exchanges to strengthen the economy of West Bengal. So silk based handloom and Khadi industry should find out the proper way to keep this art cum industry alive and to make it strong further.
