On the auspicious occasion
of Gandhi Jayanti, the Lt.
Governor, A&N Islands,
Prof. Jagdish Mukhi will
inaugurate the launching of
khadi programme in the
terr itory through
modernization /
upgradation of the existing
looms and charkhas at the
District Jail, Prothrapur on
2nd October at 7 pm in a
brief function being
organized by the
Directorate of Industries at
the ITF ground as a part of
Andaman Bazaar. During
the programme, the Lt.
Governor will handover the
looms and charkhas to the
Superintendent, District Jail,
Prothrapur.
The A&N Islands Khadi
and Village Industries
Board is striving hard since
last 20 odd years to
implement Khadi
programme in A&N
Islands but absence of
traditional spinners,
weavers, high wages,
scarcity of raw materials
has been the prohibitive
factors for non-
implementation of khadi
programme in the territory
so far.
However, this is for the first
time in the history of A&N
Islands, the Khadi and
Village Industries Board
has decided to implement
Khadi programme in these
islands through
replacement of the existing
looms and charkhas with
New Model Charkhas and
Semi Automatic Looms at
the District Jail, Prothrapur.
The programme is
expected to be successful
due to the possibility of
less overhead expenses
including labour charges
involved in mass
production of khadi fabrics
at jail. Once the programme
is implemented
successfully and
production starts, the
ultimate produce of the
Distr ict Jail could be
extended marketing
support through the
departmental sales outlet
of KG Bhavan, being the
indigenous khadi products
of A&N Islands, produced
by the inmates.

San Francisco, Sept 28
India’s world No.21 Dipika
Pallikal made short work of
USA’s Olivia Blatchford 13-11,
11-6, 11-9 to enter the women’s
semifinals of the San Francisco
Open squash tournament, a
PSA World Tour event.
She made it two wins over
seeded players in as many
days after having beaten fourth-
seed Emily Whitlock in round
one.
It would be her biggest PSA
World Tour semifinal since
2014.
Pallikal was in fine form in her
match against sixth seeded
Whitlock and continued in the
same vein against her American
rival on Wednesday.
She had in fact lost to Blatchford
in the first round of the same
event in 2015.
The first game saw the Indian
come up with some composed
squash and well-structured
rallies to go four game balls up
before the sixth-seed fought
back. Blatchford came into her
own as she fought for every
point and she managed to level
the scores. However, after she
had overturned another game
ball in the tie-break, the US
No.2 tinned an attempted volley
drop under pressure from
Pallikal to go a game down.
It was one-way traffic in the
second as Pallikal dominated
and quickly doubled her
advantage, while a tightly-
contested third game saw the
Indian go match ball up when
a contentious no-let decision
was given against Blatchford to
bring an end to the 35-minute
match. She said after some
unimpressive results in the
summer, things were falling in
place, for which she credited
nat ional coach Ashraf el
Karagui.
