Abstract

The Mughal takeover of Kashmir in 1586 brought new changes. Immediately upon its annexation, it was incorporated into Mughal Subah Kabul. With the end of political isolation, the valley was opened up to the rest of the world, which helped to strengthen the people's economy. Road communication have resulted lot of changes. Skilled employees were given complete independence and extensive patronage by monarchs for the growth of industry. Kashmir became a well-known center of handicraft production after the Mughal dynasty came to power. In the Mughal sub-region of Kashmir, the Mughal ruler’s-maintained trade routes, built bridges and series, and thus largely promoted the export of handicrafts. Handicrafts have been exported throughout India as well as to neighboring countries. South India has also become a major Centre for the marketing of Kashmiri handicrafts, resulting in huge profits for Kashmir. This document discusses the export of Kashmiri handicrafts. What are the routes by which these handicrafts are exported, for example, and why do people from all over India and its neighboring countries have a craze for them?
