EMBROIDERIES OF INDIA / PHULKARI WORK / GOVT. SUPPORT

- Over the years, government has been working towards promotion of Phulkari embroidery, by organizing special training programs, fairs, and exhibitions.

- Since most of women artisan creating phulkari are in the unorganized sector or work through agents, they do not make much money when compared to the tremendous skill and effort involved. The middlemen generally pocketed most of it.

- To avoid this lacuna Punjab Small Industries and Export Corporation (PSIEC) has formed women self-help groups and cooperatives to sell directly and make more profits.

- Even though the textile industry today, is imitating this art with the help of machines, Phulkari work in its original traditional form still reigns in rural Punjab.

- In 2011, after a five-year long legal case, Phulkari was awarded the geographical indication (GI) status in India, which means that after that only registered traders and manufacturers from Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan states would be able to use the term for this unique ethnic craft.
