Summary: | Handicrafts activity is predominantly carried out in the unorganized house
hold sector. The artisans\manufactures are household members practicing
handicrafts activity jointly at their residence, who if need arises, employ other
handicraft artisans for work. In India as well as in many other regions of the world,
handicrafts sector is identified as the second largest sector of rural employment after
agriculture. The potential of the Handicraft industry has been underestimated as this
sector can contribute a lot to our economy. Artisans belong to economically
backward low wage system, irregularity of work, lack of technical knowhow and lack

schemes and making changes in the present schemes to develop the handicraft
industry as well as artisans. |
