New Delhi, June 4 : The Fashion Design Council of India has opened the next tranche of its Covid-19 Support Fund (CSF) which provides financial aid to weavers and craftsmen who are in crisis due to the pandemic.
FDCI Chairman Suni Sethi tells IANSlife: In the first tranche we helped out fashion designers for their staff and junior staff which included their tailors, masters, peons and others. But the second tranche is open for non-FDCI designers who were not our members and yet we want to see how we could help them and also other people who are related to it. We did not go to the public for funding. Instead of identifying individual weavers, this time we are going with societies and co-operative societies, unions etc through references, so that the fund is distributed among many.
