Do you know about Sivakasi?


The town is famous all over India for its fireworks factories. There are at least 300 manufacturers based in the city but that number blooms during Diwali. Many of these factories (mostly small-scale and unorganized sector) only exist during the festival season and then vanish for the rest of the year. The town is also known for its powerful printing industry and match-making industries, along with an average literacy rate of 77%, higher than the national average of 59.5%. It was given the nickname "Kutty Japan" ('Mini Japan' in Tamil) by Jawaharlal Nehru. Today it contribute 80% of India's total safety matches production, 90% of India's total fireworks production, and 60% of India's total offset printing solutions. It is the highest Sales/Excise/Customs Duty paying towns even Mumbai, Delhi lags far behind it, and has achieved 100% employment (can you tell me a city apart from this (Sivakasi) and Tirupur where we the situation like this throughout the whole country.

Moreover in reality where the country like India, where we don’t know to give importance to the basic needs (those who got this there is no need to comment on this, because you don't know how to help others !!), providing free education (my indian dream, cheers), human survival, uplifiting poverty – these words just lies in the newspaper headlines, books and in cosmopolitan bashing talks; so stop your bakwas (bullshit), buy and play crackers (which can give some money and cheers on their life).
