Speaking as the chief guest, Bidyarani Ayekpam expressed that the State has potential markets for silk products however there is shortage of raw materials.
To enhance silk productivity in the State, she stressed on the need of sensitizing the women folk to take up new and innovative techniques in addition to the traditional way of extracting silk.
In this regard, the Sericulture Department has a major role to play, she added.
She further informed that the new projects have been sanctioned from the Centre for silk production in Manipur which will eventually enhance production and promotion of indigenous silk products.
