New Delhi [India], April 17: The grand 75th anniversary celebrations of Shree Market Silk Merchants Association ended on 14th April at the Garware Club House, Mumbai. During the celebrations, Chief Guest Mangal Prabhat Lodha, Maharashtra Cabinet Minister, presented “Lifetime Achievement Award” posthumously to Late Dhirubhai Ambani, Founder of The Reliance Group. He also unveiled a Textile Souvenir on this occasion.
Mangal Prabhat Lodha stated that India has a rich textile heritage. 400 years ago, Dhaka’s muslin saree used to pass through the ring. The second phase of development was spent by Dhirubhai Ambani, who created a vast production capacity of fibre, yarn, and textiles. The third phase has been created by Prime Minister Narendra Modi with the slogan ‘Make in India’.
Padmabhushan Kundanbhai Vyas, who was the Guest of Honour at the function, said that today Surat and Ahmedabad have overtaken Mumbai, which has lagged behind in the production and trade of textiles. Mumbai’s textile business will flourish only if Bhiwandi’s power loom industry and Dombivli’s processing industry flourish. Mumbai is no longer a manufacturing centre, but a distribution centre, as the 8 small and big textile markets in the C ward have become outdated. These textile markets should be redeveloped and modernized and connectivity should be improved there.
