Guiding Principles

Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay

"Crafts Council of India must always be ready to let others take credit for its achievements and remain completely anonymous in favour of the artisan."

"Those who work for the council must remember that it is the artisan to whom we wish recognition to be directed."

"Those who serve the Council must accept their role as facilitators, not patrons of the artisans."

"Humility is therefore as important as sensitivity if CCI is to generate the national movement for which it was founded."

- Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay
(3rd April 1903 – 29th October 1988)
