In order to develop handloom sector in the state of West Bengal, the following activities have been undertaken under various schemes of this office in the last three years and the current year (as on 30-9-2019):

 

  • As per 4th All India Handloom Census (2019-20), there are 283404 handlooms and 366656 handloom weavers in the State.
  • One Mega Handloom Cluster has been sanctioned for Murshidabad district of the State. Project cost of Rs. 72.26 crore has been approved by PAMC, of which Government of India Share is Rs. 61.12 crore.  A sum of Rs. 23.26 crore has been released under the project.  
  • 25 Block Level clusters have been sanctioned and a sum of Rs. 9.02 crore has been released covering 26793 beneficiaries.
  • 5 Marketing events have been sanctioned and a sum of Rs. 34.00 lakh has been released.
  • Concessional loan worth Rs. 5.20 crore have been sanctioned to 1080 beneficiaries.
  • 97696 beneficiaries have been enrolled under Mahatma Gandhi Bunkar Bima Yojana (MGBBY)/converged MGBBY and Pradhan Mantri Jivan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY)/Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY).
  • 49 Yarn Depots and 3 Warehouses are functional in the State for supply of yarn at subsidized rates.
  • 37.10 lakh kg of yarn worth Rs. 111.52 crore has been supplied to the handloom weavers of West Bengal at mill gate price and 33.22 lakh kg of yarn worth Rs. 104.73 crore has been supplied under 10% subsidy scheme of Yarn Supply Scheme (YSS). 
  • In order to prevent production of handloom reserved items on powerlooms, enforcement machinery is operational in the State.  Rs. 57.08 lakh has been released for the machinery.  Powerloom inspections are carried out by the enforcement machinery.

 

The Government generally does not set up / establish new textile units in the country.  The role of the Government is to ensure a conducive policy environment, facilitating in creating enabling conditions for the industry and private entrepreneurs to set up units through policy initiatives and various schemes implemented viz. the Amended Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme (A-TUFS), Schemes for the development of the Powerloom Sector(Power-Tex), Schemes for Technical Textiles, Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP), Scheme for Additional Grant for Apparel Manufacturing Units under SITP (SAGAM),  SAMARTH- The Scheme for Capacity Building in Textile Sector (SCBTS), Jute (ICARE- Improved Cultivation and Advanced Retting Exercise), National Handloom Development Programme, National Handicrafts Development Programme, Integrated Processing Development Scheme (IPDS), Silk Samagra, Integrated Wool Development Programme (IWDP) and North East Region Textiles Promotion Scheme (NERTPS), Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (ROSCTL).

 

The issue of re-opening of closed mills is a subject being handled by the respective State Governments. However, to protect and revive the jute industries, Government of India has decided to continue Jute Packaging Material (Compulsory Use in Packing Commodities) Act, 1987 keeping in view the interest of raw jute growers and workers involved in the jute industry.  This Act has provided uninterrupted market for jute bags. In every month, different state government agencies purchase jute bags for packing foodgrains for distribution through PDS. On an average, a total quantity of 26 to 28 lakh bales of jute bags is purchased in a year. This purchase has taken care of almost 93% of the sacking capacity of the industry. Government of India, have issued an Order dated 30-11-2018 under the Jute Packaging Materials (Compulsory Use in Packing Commodities) Act, 1987 stipulating 100% foodgrains and 20% sugar are required to be compulsorily packed in jute packaging material.  The reservation to foodgrains was increased to 100% from 30-11-2018 that was 90% in the preceding years, manifesting in increased patronage of the Government of India.
