COTTON TO CLOTH - PRAHLAD NEMADE

Prahlad Nemade had been working on decentralized Khadi for a long time.  His experiments are on processing cotton produced in the village there itself, spin and produce yarn and weave cloth.  In processing cotton there are stages - removing seeds, refining cotton and making it into a 'tape' then make it into 'puni' which can be mounted on Amber Charkha for taking the yarn.  Sri Nemade developed several machines for undertaking these processes.  He also demonstrated his unit in Delhi during the Kargha Yagna organized by Gandhi Smrithi and Darsan Samithi.
