India has more Muslims than BD. Even if we assume that the proportion of weaver communities among IMs is the same as BD M still we can have as many skilled weavers as BD. Besides, even Hindus have weaver communities and even more people from non traditional communities can take it up. It is no rocket science.

Hence you don’t see Muslims in certain professions.

This is untrue, and it is counterproductive to be propagating stereotypes.

Indian Muslims have had to “evolve” in order to survive.

They no longer have Muslim characteristics.

Many have even stopped eating beef out of fear.

Making chadis for the world....

Anything which brings in forex and provides employment for millions of poor people, particularly women, is not something to be sneered at. Lets hope millions of Indians from the BIMARU and Eastern states get into chaddi stitching too.

Regards

This is no sneer. The lifting of women is more than commendable and a lesson for South Asia. Nor is Chaddi stitching a worthless profession.

HOWEVER

The idea that this is a glorious technological leap compared to the breadth and depth of India's still nascent technological achievement's is a laughable proposition.

Kola bhai,

They no longer have Muslim characteristics. Many have even stopped eating beef out of fear.

Ability to stitch clothes doesnt seem to be in the list of verboten activities for IMs. Now, I dont know whether not eating beef impairs their weaving abilities. Doesnt seem plausible. If you had argued that not eating beef impairs their abilities as fast bowlers, I may have been tempted to agree.

They are shedding anything that makes them visible to Hinduvta mob.

That includes the professions they traditionally occupied.

Few weeks ago I posted an article from the London Financial Times - about how BJP is putting Muslims into ghettos by intimidating anyone who is willing to rent/sell to Muslims.

Financial Times described how it is being systematically implemented in Delhi.

 

[Bilal9]

So, what is your point? Do you think it is a fiction writing contest in that I will write every chapter of every Muslim or Hindu group in two-sentence writing?

The thing is India with many facilities from the GoI has been unable to explore the garments sector, and you think a few scattered Muslims can do it. Very strange.

We also have weaver people. They only weave traditional wear like Sari, Lungi, Dhoti, and other traditional wear.

Anyway, we have a long tradition of stitching clothes that Hindus do not have. It is true throughout the Sub-continent.

Before Muslims brought the art of stitching clothes to India, Indians wore non-stitched clothing.

Thus the propagation of Sarees, Dhotis, Uttariyas etc.

It's plain and simple.

@bluesky

Hindus are traditionally Dhobi and barbers. How can Indian Dhobi Hindus learn our traditional stitching ability so fast?

After reading this post of yours, I am somewhat more sympathetic to the opinion of UKB Dada (@UKBengali) or Kola bhai (@bananarepublic) regarding you.

Surely, you know that about 15% of Indians are Muslims and this percentage is more than 20% in Assam, Bengal, UP and Bihar. What you may not know is that a large number of them are Ansaris (weavers) by caste, many others belong to artisanal caste like blacksmiths, potters, etc There are many Hindu weaver communities as well.

I personally would hardly give a flying Rat's behind about whatever any False Flagger Indian Sanghi says about me or @bluesky bhai...

The History of Sewing​

1 comment JUL 17, 2018
Sewing is one of our favourite things here at Hot Pink Haberdashery. It’s a fantastic and calming pastime (considering all goes to plan of course!) and it produces some of our favourite haberdashery pieces. Sewing is a staple of what we do here and what we help facilitate you to do too - from clothing to cushions, bedding to baby shower presents, sewing is absolutely pivotal in within haberdashery.
Whilst we know how to sew and what it can do for us, what do we actually know about the history of sewing? The answer for us was: not very much - until we did our research! Sewing has a vast and interesting history, first arising in the Paleolithic era! We want to share this pretty cool history with you so that when you’re working away on your sewing machine or hand sewing your favourite stitch, you can remember this…

What is sewing?
Of course we know sewing as it is today, but breaking it right down to its fundamentals, sewing is the craft of fastening or attaching objects using stitches made with a needle and thread. As mentioned, it is one of the oldest textiles arts and it started in the caves. Before the more advanced spinning or weaving came about, archaeologists believe that our Stone Age ancestors across Asia and Europe sewed fur and skin clothing using bone, antler and Ivory needles, using ‘thread’ made from various animal body parts such as sinew, catgut and veins (thankfully that’s not the case anymore…).
Unsurprisingly, for thousands of years, sewing was always done by hand until the invention of the sewing machine in the 19th century and the rise of technology which led to mass production and export of sewn objects. Hand sewing is still practised around the world today and is associated with high quality tailoring, couture fashion and custom dress making (as well as being used as a means of creative expression like us!).

Origins of sewing
Sewing has been a necessity in cultures and societies for millions of years. It was used to stitch together animal hides for clothing, warmth and shelter. A great example of this is looking at Inuits, who would use sinew from caribou and those American Plains and Canadian Prairies used sophisticated sewing methods to assemble tipi shelters. Moving around the world, sewing was combined with the weaving of plant leaves in Africa to create baskets; thin strips of palm leaf would be used as thread to stitch wider strips of palm leaf to make the coil.
Moving North East from Africa, the weaving of cloth from natural fibres was originated around 4000 BC and even earlier, during the Neolithic Age was when the sewing of cloth accompanied this development.
Middle Ages
During this time, Europeans who could afford it, would employ seamstresses and tailors. Sewing was mainly a woman’s occupation and all sewing before the 19th century tended to be practical. Clothing was expensive so women had the important job of extending the longevity of items of clothing. Sewing was used for mending, reusing (such as making quilts etc.). Making clothes from scratch was long and tedious (weaving pattern making, cutting, alterations..) which meant that women were able to barter their expertise in particular skill with one another.
Decorative needlework such as embroidery was a highly valued skill at the time and from the Middle Ages up until the 17th century, sewing tools such as needles, pins and pincushions were included in the trousseaus of many European brides. Decirative embroidery was valued in countries and cultures all over the world - from Ireland to China, Morocco to Western Asia, cultures independent from each other found themselves with the same styles of stitching - pretty awesome!

Industrial Revolution
When we think of the The Industrial Revolution we think of heavy machinery, smoke and metal production - not necessarily of the textile industry that was born from it. The Industrial Revolution shifted the production of textiles from the household to the mills. The first sewing machine was patented in 1790 by Thomas Saint and but the early 1840s, other early sewing machines began to appear and by the 1850s, Isaac Singer developed the first sewing machine that not only surpassed the productivity of a seamstress or tailor, but could also be used at home.
Following this, textile sweatshops full of underpaid sewing
machine operators grew into entire business districts in large cities, including London which further supported the industry. Mainly full of women working up to 14 hour days to earn enough to support themselves, this was a super tough time for working women. Tailors became associated with higher-end clothing and tailor shops popped up around Savile Row and coming into the 20th century and beyond, Savile’s tailor businesses are still flourishing.

What’s sewing today?
In the 20th century, sewing machines became more affordable to the working class so the demand for sewing patterns grew. An American tailor and manufacturer called Ebenezer Butterick created paper patterns that could be traced and used by home sewers. These became wildly popular and off the back of the demand, several pattern companies soon established themselves. As some of you might remember, women’s magazines also carried sewing patterns for much of the 20th century but declined when ready-made clothing became a necessity when more women joined the paid workforce, leaving them with less time to sew.
Today, the low price of ready-made clothing in high street shops and online, means that home sewing is largely confined to hobbyists in the Western world with the exception of cottage industries in custom dressmaking and upholstery!

[Bilal9]

Coming back to the OP and why he posted the thread - Tata is in Bangladesh precisely because they DO NOT HAVE this cutting edge quantum arc furnace technology. I don't think any other company in India does either. They want to induct this technology to make better quality steel, like Bangladesh does.

Why is it so hard for bhakts to understand this and swallow their indignant pride?

 

[Turingsage]

I don't think any other company in India does either. They want to induct this technology to make better quality steel, like Bangladesh does.

The largest steel maker in China produces more steel than ALL OF INDIA COMBINED... Big friggin' whoop. Trying to prove your mettle against Bangladesh, a country one-eighth of your size... are we supposed to be impressed? Figures in Millions of tonnes.

China makes more than a Billion tonnes of steel as a country - and India makes around a tenth of that.

India has been making steel from 1870. Tata Steel making started in 1907

Yes we know. Sahib started your steel industry. Like everything else. Handed it in a platter. And you still can't run these properly.

Bangladesh just started its local ship-breaking scrap dependent steel making a decade ago, we have a heck of a ways to go, unlike a country whose whole industrial base was provided by the UK hundreds of years ago because of local iron ore in India. In a country the size of one of your smaller states, we break twice as many ships as India does in a year and that is the source of our steel, not billets. Bangladesh ship-breaking is a third of all global activity.

Thank you for confirming that bhakts are perfect ingrates and nincompoops as well.

Tell your High commission in Bangladesh to stop groveling about Indian trade and tourism there.

"Bhai ek visa le-kar India jao shopping ke liye - jao na !"

"Bhai please lower tariff for Indian goods in Bangladesh - please! otherwise our Indian workers will starve!"

So enough of this faaltu talk. Just stop shamelessly giving out Indian visas like orders of pao bhajee and pani puri. You can get these Indian visas at kiosks in all major malls in Dhaka. No one even wants Indian Visa and Indian HC is giving them away. Pathetic.

Confirms what I was talking about.

Faaltu Gareebi Halat third-rate economy, and bhakts acting like they're doing Bangladeshi tourists and shoppers a favor.

Taka ke ditesey karey? Bujhen kisoo? Who is paying whom?

My God these bhakts are some gadhas. Bunch of Bhishwa gadhas.

And Kolkata is no longer the main medical tourism head quarter, Chennai is (or nearby Chennai).

Your information is old and outdated.

The day we stop coming and stop using Indian goods imports, your Kolkata economy will collapse. Your Didi knows that very well.
