Best answer

One day an English teacher took the class for a case-study to Mangalagiri, a famous town for handicraft weaving in Guntur District. The case-study is about weaving industry.

The students tried to know many things about the weaving industry in Manglagiri with the help of a master weaver named Veeraiah.

Mr. Veeraiah explained to them how they make the yarn suitable for dyeing. After dyeing it is washed, dried at room temperature and brought for the process of spinning. Later yarn spools are made ready for making a fabric. 

A weaver named Ramaiah took the students and showed them an open area where the yarn was spread. Another weaver Sambayya explained to them that the uniqueness of Mangalagiri cotton is because of its durability. He said that they weave sarees, dress and shirts. It has a rich appearance. The quality of work done by the weavers and the pain the weavers take for weaving a saree keep the love for our Mangalagiri fabric. 

Around 5000 weavers are working in the Mangalagiri textiles industry in a population of eighty thousand. Mangalagiri has a special place in the world textile map because of the handloom sarees and the dressmaterials woven here are world famous. 

The weavers face many problems in the textile industry. They face tough competition, change in fashion, trends, scarcity of raw material and the involvement of middle men. However the traditional value of handloom fabric is increasing for their uniqueness. Handloom fabric, thus, has a lot of global demand because of its artistic appeal.
