Kulkacherla: Potters in the mandal are facing hardship as there are no takers for clay idols prepared by them. Especially as many as 70 families out of 100 of Chapalagudem are still depend upon their caste avocations. They are in a ray of hope expecting encouragement to their works. Though loud slogans like ‘say no to plaster of paris idols and yes to clay ones’ reverberate at the time of Vinayaka Chavithi, people are not enthused to shift.
The idle makers lamented that there is no encouragement from government side though they are indirectly contributing to the protection of environment. As the festival is nearing, village youngsters seen busy in clay idols preparation. Idols has been transported to Hyderabad, Bangalore and other parts of Karnataka as there is nobody to take them in the district. They are expecting some encouragement to their profession from the government side.
