Local artisans face competition from out-of-state Ganesha idols
1 2 Pic: Traditional artisans are busy preparing idols as the Ganesh Chaturthi is approaching Hubballi: Artisans crafting Lord Ganesha idols in Hubballi are encountering difficulties due to competition from bulk importers. Numerous families traditionally involved in creating clay Ganesha idols are struggling as sellers import large quantities of idols from various regions of crafting Lord Ganesha idols in Hubballi are encountering difficulties due to competition from bulk sellers. Numerous families traditionally involved in creating clay Ganesha idols are struggling as sellers bring in large quantities of idols from various regions of Maharashtra. These local artisans in Hubballi have crafted Ganesha idols for generations, using traditional techniques and eco-friendly materials. However, their livelihoods are now at risk due to mass-produced idols flooding the market from Maharashtra and some border districts in Karnataka. Imported idols are cheaper and more visually appealing, making it difficult for local craftsmen to compete. The local idol makers work throughout the year, carefully moulding and painting each idol by hand. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Blood cancer is taking our curious baby away from us! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo Their clay-based idols are environmentally sustainable and follow traditional artistic practices. These artisans invest considerable time and effort in sourcing quality soil, preparing it, and crafting detailed features of each Ganesha idol. Local artisans are now seeking support from district authorities and cultural organisations to protect their craft. They emphasise the importance of preserving traditional idol-making techniques and maintaining the cultural heritage of Hubballi. The Maharashtra and other border districts' made idols arrive in large quantities just before the festival season, often undercutting local prices by 30-40%. These mass-produced pieces, while attractive and affordable, lack the personal touch and cultural significance of locally crafted idols, said Satish Murgod, an artist in Bammapur Oni. He explained that numerous families have relied on the traditional craftsmanship of Ganesha idols for their livelihood. Artists constantly face competition from various Ganesha idol vendors in their vicinity. Sellers with no technical expertise in idol making are flooding the market with Ganesha idols imported from Maharashtra, falsely claiming these are crafted from clay. Being part of a family that has traditionally specialised in creating clay Ganesha idols, sustaining the business has become challenging. Satish further mentioned that people are bulk-importing uncoloured Ganesha idols and employing local workers to paint them according to regional preferences. Despite these challenges, many families continue their ancestral craft, hoping that increased awareness about eco-friendly practices will help sustain their profession. They are also exploring ways to modernise their techniques while maintaining traditional aesthetics to remain competitive in the changing market. The situation highlights the broader challenge of balancing cultural preservation with market economics in traditional crafts.

Teen's documentary on 2020 Delhi riots tells stories of compassion at Kolkata event
1 2 Kolkata: A US-based documentarian of Indian origin, Zara Bharadwaj—who was barely 12 years old during the 2020 Delhi riots—had witnessed both scenes of humanity as well as brutality during the conflict. She was living in Delhi back then. She was a witness to harrowing scenes of violence—people fleeing for their lives, a bus being set ablaze. But powerful moments of compassion—people of different communities answering the call for humanity, staying by each other's side—are also a part of her memories of those days. She chose to tell these stories of hope and kindness to the world and thus filmed 'Humanity Over Hate.' Bharadwaj was in the city on Sunday to attend an event, where a glimpse of her documentary was shown to attendees from different religious backgrounds at a city hotel. The documentary had won the award for best non-fiction at the 2025 California Student Media Festival recently. It was also screened in AMC Theatre in Times Square in New York.

Speaking on the sidelines of the event, Bharadwaj revealed that the documentary took shape during her international law class at a US school, where she studied 'why people get displaced.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo A strong believer of communal harmony, the teenager also conducts workshops on interfaith collaboration at NGOs and schools in India. Students in the age group of 13 to 18 years attend her workshops, where they discuss stories of intercommunity solidarity. They create a 'harmony tree' in which people write their ideas to promote solidarity. These workshops are an integral part of her 'Together We Rise' movement, aimed at creating youth ambassadors, who can teach people to 'live in harmony and dignity.' To Bharadwaj, religion gives hope. "More than the ritualistic aspect of religion, it's the belief in greater good that attracts me," she said, adding that social media now amplifies rage and controversy. Sunday's event that drew a crowd of religious heads and youths was organised by FACES president Imran Zaki. It was attended by Utpal Chatterjee, Shahanshah Mirza IRS, Bhishambhar Newar, Kunal Sarkar, among other dignitaries.

The awardees included many students from Kamptee schools. Over three decades ago, some friends came together to start the tradition of awarding each other's kids in a modest living room of an apartment in Anant Nagar. "This was done to keep Muslim families and kids inspired and motivated towards the importance of education as the country was facing communal tension in the early 1990s. We also bring a community topper as one of the guests to guide the meritorious students in their careers," said MFS president Mushtaque Eshaan Qureshi. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like These Are The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo Over the years, the popularity increased, and the event turned public from being held privately at an apartment.
