Hyderabad: The concept of 'One station-One Product' has been announced by the Union government recently as part of the initiative aimed at promoting sale of local products. Accordingly, the Hyderabad Division of South Central Railway has started inviting applications from interested NGOs, Self-Help Groups, government bodies and others promoting handloom products/handicrafts/sarees/textiles to open the stall on railway station premises.
As per the release, the main objective of the initiative is to make each railway station a promotional hub and a showcase destination for the local products, thereby giving a major boost to local industries by providing enhanced livelihood to local artisans, potters, handloom weavers, tribals etc.
