Panel formed to study revival of ailing Nagpur Weavers Mill

The meeting was attended by Member of Parliament Vilas Muttemwar, legislator Nitin Raut, Kishore Kashikar, Director textiles Nanak Ramteke, weavers8217; leader Haribhau Naik, besides other representatives of the weavers.

Deshmukh said he was aware of the problems faced by weavers in the region following closure of the yarn mill three years ago. He assured that the Congress-NCP State Government was pledged to solve the problems and would hand over the mill whoever was willing to run it, be it the weavers or the employees.

Speaking on the occasion, Muttemwar and Raut urged the State Government to permit members of the weaver community to run the ailing mill. This would help in instilling confidence among them and give thrust to their capabilities, they said.

Prominent among those present were Ramesh Gupta, Joint Director Handloom Directorate Dilip Kalbhore, MD Davar, Vithalrao Barapatre, Ganpatrao Shahir, Vasantrao Parsheonikar, Gulabrao Bokde, Hemraj Hedau, Ramchandra Chapre, Deputy District Registrar Bhusari and others.
