Handlooms (Handloom Industry in Pochampally)
Pochampally has
traditional looms, whose design is more than a century-old. Basking under the
glory on par with the weavers of other places, Pochampally weave is popularly
known as tie and dye weave. The uniqueness lies in the transfer of design and
colouring onto warp and weft threads first and then weaves them together. The
fabric is cotton, silk and sico - a mix of silk and cotton. Increasingly, the
colours themselves are from natural sources and their blends. The
consumer-weaver interactions provide inputs for new designs. The weavers from
the older and new generation have shown resilience and adapted themselves to
the changing tastes of the consumers.

History of Bhoodan Pochampally
18th April 1951
was an historic day of the very genesis of the Bhoodan movement. Vinoba Bhave
visited Pochampally mandal in Nalgonda district. Vinayak Narahari Bhave was known as Vinoba
Bhave was an advocate for nonviolence and human rights and is well known for
his Bhoodan Movement to help the landless farmers. The organizers had arranged
Vinoba's stay at Pochampally, a small village with about 700 families, of whom
two-thirds were landless. Pochampally villagers gave Vinoba a warm welcome.
Seeing the plight of landless villagers, Vinoba inquired whether anything is
possible to do if it is not possible to get land from the government. Vedre Ramchandra Reddy, the local landlord
got up and said that he is ready to donate 250 acres. This incident neither planned nor imagined
was the very genesis of the Bhoodan movement and it made Vinoba realize that
there is some potentiality of solving the land problem of India. This movement
later on developed into a village gift or Gramdan movement. As the huge, massive
and magnificent movement called Bhoodan Movement was born at this village
Pochampally, the village was renamed to Bhoodan Pochampally.
