assam@assamnet.org Subject: [Assam] Fashion technology institute set up at
Sualkuchi (The Assam Tribune, 26.07.2008) Fashion
technology institute set up at Sualkuchi From Our Correspondent SUALKUCHI,
July 26 – Though application of modern technology in textile industry is a
must to cope with the present trend of open market, but it has hardly
influenced the artisans of Sualkuchi who are habituated with the traditional
technology in silk industry. Resistance to using modern technology has been
the bane of the weavers, master weavers and entrepreneurs who face marketing
problems on a regular basis. Even as there is a high demand for Sualkuchi
silk attire in European markets, due to technological stagnation lack of
interest to introduce innovations in the age-old silk industry, the town has
not been able to meet such demands. Realising the potential that the town
has in regard to production of quality silk clothes, the Kamrup district
administration in collaboration with NEC and the NIFT, Kolkata has set up the
Sualkuchi Institute of Fashion Technology at Sualkuchi. This maiden institute
of fashion technology would provide a common platform for fashion and design
education, research and training. The prime objective of setting up such an
exclusive institute is to enhance the livelihood of a sizeable population and
also to create a new brand for Sualkuchi silk. The institute would cover
areas of conducting intensive integrated training programme on fashion and
textile design, exploration and development of a design bank specific to the
Sualkuchi region through conduct of computer-aided designing programmes,
training and introduction of contemporary designs, colours, schemes, methods
of practice to ensure development of products consisting both apparel and
home furnishings and to conduct research and development on product
diversification and design innovation, etc. Meanwhile, the Kamrup district
administration has completed the construction of the institute buildings
comprising lecture rooms, seminar hall, separate hostel facilities for girls
and boys, fully equipped textile CAD, dying and processing room, quality
control and testing, handloom pattern making and stitching laboratories with
the latest machineries and modern facilities. The education structure will
emphasise hands on experience through practical set ups and state-of-the-art
technology. The institute will also have an updated library-cum-resource
centre which will provide the latest information on colour forecast, fashion
trends and industry happenings to the trainees. PS Barbora, who was
appointed principal of the institute through a release said the duration of
the training programme has been fixed for six weeks per batch which include
25 trainees. The National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT), Kolkata
will implement the integrated training programme on fashion and textile
design by deputing experienced faculty members and industry experts and the
course curriculum, training modules have been designed by NIFT by using a
range of work based teaching and learning techniques to ensure the trainees
gain a practical, strategic and operational understanding of design
development, product diversification and management skills. After
completion of the course, the trainees would get, a detailed overview on
designs innovation, product diversification, colour forecast and fashion
trends, etc which will widen their perspectives. The people of Sualkuchi
have lauded the government and praised Health Minister, Dr Himanta Biswa
Sarma for the novel project.
