APCO Clears Over ₹2 Crore in Dues to Handloom Weavers

APCO, a group that helps handloom weavers in Andhra Pradesh, has paid out over 2 crore rupees to weavers.

This money is part of the government's plan to help the handloom industry and the people who make the cloth.

The money went to 84 different weaver groups in 7 different areas.

This is only part of what they owe, about 20% of the total.

The government also helps weavers by giving them free electricity, pensions, and cheaper yarn.

The goal is to make sure the weavers can have good lives.
