Basket Village

Purulia in West Bengal is known for basket making, particularly by the Sabar and Kheria Sabar communities. These communities create bamboo fishing baskets (Ghugi) and brooms (Jhatta), supplementing their livelihoods through the sale of these items. The Sabar communities also collect and sell medicinal plants and fruits like Teetpung Shikhar, Kurchi seeds, and wild Bel fruits.
