In the galaxy of Indian fiction the contribution of women novelists has been of paramount significance. In majority of the novels we come across the miserable plight of Indian woman. She has been suppressed, oppressed, depressed and exploited in the male dominating society or to say in the patriarchal setup. The fictional world of Shashi Deshpande, Kiran Desai, Anita Desai, Kamala Markandaya, Nayantara Sahagal, Bharati Mukherjee, Manju Kapur and others have tried to discuss the issue like women struggling for their identity, women’s commitment to the traditional roles of motherhood, the complex relationship between husband and wife, the family structure and caste system. These writers have tried to depict both the diversity of women and the diversity within each woman.

 At present days the weaver women’s empowerment has become a growing concern both at the National and International levels on the subjugated, the disadvantaged and status of women in the society. They are facing so many Mental Health problems. In India, weaver women’s empowerment has to be focused mainly in non formal sectors, where the women’s work force is predominant. One among them is handloom sector. It is one of the largest economic activities, after agriculture, providing direct and indirect employment as well as being predominately a non-farm activity. It has passed on from generations to generations. In the wake of industrialization, our country’s own Power-loom and Khadi movement totally deteriorated the overall status of handlooms and its weavers. Mainly it burdens the life of women, a major work force in the handloom sector, compared to men.  Nearly 80 percent of handloom workers are women in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Commonly illiteracy and poverty are the two major factors that doubt the elevation and livelihood of these women workers. Hence the handloom women workers should get benefit from the current scenario, need to move up the economic status in the sector from primary levels. On a whole the purpose of this article is to familiarize with the current status and livelihood problems of unorganized women handloom workers and also to improve their Mental Health, social protection and security.
Keywords:  Skill Development, Livelihood Problems, Handloom Industry, Women Weavers, Social Protection, Mental health.
