Jamdani saris a big hit at India International Trade Fair

New Delhi, Nov 20 (IANS) Jamdani saris are known for their fine texture, elegant colours and their steep price tags - but visitors to the ongoing India International Trade Fair nevertheless flocked the stalls of Bangladeshi textile houses to buy the exquisite six yards of cloth.

Among the 20-odd Bangladeshi exhibitors, more than half were from textile houses, who had brought their prized Jamdani sarees to the fortnight-long trade fair that began Nov 16.

Rufiqal Islam stood at his corner stall in hall number 12 of Pragati Maidan, as hordes of visitors made a beeline for the row of international exhibitors. “This time, we have a new product of mixing silk with the traditional Jamdani cotton. This gives it a shiny appearance which appeals to people here,” he said.

Most of his Jamdani saris are in the range of Rs.2,000 to Rs.10,000. A veteran of several trade fairs in India, he said his clients were not just Bengalis in India, but also members from other communities.

“There is more awareness now about what Jamdani is - about how to understand whether it is of good quality or not,” he said.

But for most of them, the trip to Delhi to take part in the trade fair has been fraught with tension, as the Indian high commission recently increased the time taken for processing visas.

“Earlier, we used to get a business visa within a day, now it has been increased by four working days,” said Muhammad Munir Hussain of Moushumi Jamdani House.

An official of Bangladesh’s Export Promotion Bureau, which facilitated the participation of their businessmen, confirmed that they did face problems over visa issuance as it took longer this time.

“Even though I have an official passport, officials there dithered over giving me a visa,” he complained.

Even after getting the visa, transferring their consignments through the Indian border post has been a nightmare for some of them.

“I had to pay a bribe of Rs.2,000 to the Indian customs officials at Benapole to get my goods across. I was travelling on the bus, so I couldn’t argue long as I would have delayed the journey for the rest of the passengers,” said Najma Akhtar, who had bought embroidered textiles to the fair.

Bangladeshi members just cannot stop complaining about India.India did this India did that.... .Its irritating.If u really think that India stole the "intellectual rights" then your country must go to the international court of justice to settle the issue.

Note to readers: Indians are scrambling to hide their act of robbery. So expect lot more lie and deception from Indians.

Baseless allegation. Post reported.

Good for you. The stealing of Pakistani Music thread had been started by an Admin and he had proved how Indians are stealing our music.

The water theft, blockage whatever you call it is also a reality.

More over if you want you can check India even cheat the international market by claiming Pakistani rice as Indian.

Anyway thats another debate and does not belong to this thread so i will rest my case on that here.


Now come back to the Topic.

Your own people sold it to India. It will automatically become India. Japanese cars made in India come with a tag of Made in India.

India put trade barrier on Bangladeshi products, this was just an example of that. But you can see even indian woman recognize originality and beauty of Jamdani.

So now Indians have become intellectual rights' chor too.

pani chor, gana chor and now this.

Not good

But India as usual will always deny it. "How could India be a CHOR when everything in India (including foreign goods) are Indigenous ?"

legal issue is not the matter here. Thousands of years of historical evidence proof enough to show the indian robbery.

were u serious or trying to be funny.... :bounce:

see idune mate ....

Jamdani sarees are made in India and their quality is as good as those made on your size....

But the thing is a age old saying ...
"ghar ki murgi daal barabar"

the craftsmen in rural Bengal ,North-eastern state and Bangladesh are equally skilled and gifted... the quality of the saree simply soes not improve when it comes from the other side of an imaginary line.....

and bout sarees .. i know wat im talking bout ...

same goes for the fad for hilsa from the padma river ....in West Bengal...
