Greater Noida (Political Desk): Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday visited famous Chamar Studio in Dharavi, Maharashtra.
Rahul Gandhi seems very exited after this visit and writes a long post on social media website ‘X’. He writes, “Sudheer Rajbhar of Chamar Studio encapsulates the life and journey of lakhs of Dalit youth in India. Extremely talented, brimming with ideas and hungry to succeed but lacking the access and opportunity to connect with the elite in his field.”
Rahul Gandhi further writes, “However, unlike many others from his community, he got the opportunity to build his own network. He understood the latent skill of the artisans of Dharavi and he created a brand that is recognised in the most esteemed corridors of fashion globally.”
“Chamar Studio’s success highlights how traditional artisanship and modern entrepreneurship can work together so that skilled artisans get a piece of the success they build with their own hands. While working with Sudheer and his team in Dharavi today, I underscored the importance of inclusive production networks that uplift skilled workers across various sectors,” Rahul Gandhi added.
He said that it was equally important for Sudheer to share his knowledge and experience with others so they brought their friend Ramchet mochi from Sultanpur to meet him and understand how design and innovation can transform his business.
“I spoke in the Lok Sabha about how a prosperous India can only be built through “production and participation”. Chamar Studio’s success shows this model works – and I hope we can replicate such a model all over India,” he added.
