Shirva, 20 September 2011: Everyone in the community needs tailors. But there are some in this profession who are very poor and they face financial difficulties to have a decent life, children’s education, medical treatment and so on. There is no record of honouring the tailors by the government or the society who work hard and honestly. These tailors stitch dress, pyjamas, caps and other cloths without any difference between the rich and the poor, but they themselves have no economic security. In order to improve the living standards of the tailors, government’s help is very much essential, said State Tailors Association Udupi District President Abdul Khadir.
