The New Indian Express Kollam
|February 10, 2025
BEING the president of Adimali panchayat in Idukki has not deterred Soumya Anil from continuing with her family occupation of bamboo weaving.
Every day, after finishing her official duties, the 39-year-old returns home and gets on with weaving, transforming bamboo strips into baskets and other products.
"Bamboo weaving has been one of the main livelihood options for the settlers of ST Colony in Adimali," Soumya told TNIE. "Ever since the formation of the colony in 1974, the residents have been engaged in weaving, with an abundance of bamboo in the nearby reserve forest," she said.
