Question

Mysore is known for its soft, lustrous and durable silk. Murali is a silk weaver in Mysore. He does not want his children to follow his footsteps. What could be the reason for it?

Answer 1

Because silk weaving is labour‑intensive, low/unstable paying and faces strong competition from cheaper synthetic/industrial fabrics (reducing profitability and job security), Murali doesn’t want his children to continue the trade.
