With government encouragement and support, the talented weavers soon revived their ancestral occupation and the art of exquisite weaving once again flourished.

Today, finely woven feather-touch textiles and saris in exotic designs and colours are being produced in the vast weaving belt of Shantipur, Phulia, Samudragarh, Dhatrigram and Ambika Kalna—each centre producing superb fabrics in its own unique weaving style.
