rugs for parliament

Khanpora village, Budgam district, Central Kashmir 

Stooped over their looms, 50 craftsmen are busy creating history. 

12 silk-to-silk carpets will adorn the floor of,  new Parliament building in Delhi. 

Designs for the 8'x11' carpets are from traditional, Kashmiri Pashmina shawls. 

"Work on nine carpets have been completed. Remaining three will hopefully be completed, in a week or so," said Manzoor Ahmad, one of the artisans.
