In the Heartlands of Chikankari: Uplifting Craftsmanship and Empowering Rural Women
30 years ago, a visionary named Manju embarked on a remarkable journey called Alankrit, driven by a profound mission. Her goal was audacious yet noble: to provide year-round employment to every artisan she collaborated with. Beginning with just four workers in a remote village on the outskirts of Lucknow, she took up the challenge with unwavering determination.
Overcoming Obstacles, Creating Opportunities
Manju faced numerous obstacles, with the villages disconnected from roads and some accessible only by crossing rivers. Yet, her passion for the craft and commitment to her workers never wavered. They became her extended family, bound together by the artistry of Alankrit.
