Shri Aadishakti Scheduled Tribe Mini Power Loom Park Sortur Private Limited

We set things up here in Soratur at No. 46. It’s a quiet spot in the Gadag District. Most folks around here know us because of the power looms. Since this is a mini park setup, we have a bunch of machines running all at once. Local tribe members are the ones keeping the looms going. It isn't some high-end factory, just a practical place for making things. Sometimes the noise gets to be a lot, but that is part of the job when you work with textiles. Having been at this for a while, we’re used to the routine. People from the village often stop by to chat. Maintenance takes up a good chunk of our day because things get dusty fast. My uncle always said machines have their own moods, so we just try to keep them fed with yarn. Life stays pretty steady in Soratur. There isn't a big fancy office here. Most of the time we are on the floor checking that the threads don't snap. Your hands get real tired by the end of a shift, but that’s hard work for you. We just focus on what is right in front of us today. Tomorrow we’ll do it all again. If you are looking for the place, we are near the post office. It is a simple existence, but it keeps the community busy and gives us a reason to get up when the sun rises. We hope to keep the looms running for many years.
