Ajrakpur

Ajrakhpur is an art and craft town located in the desert city of Bhuj of State of Gujrath. The region is well-known around the world for its Ajrakh print, which is block printing on cloth. The settlement, which is 15 kilometres from Bhuj, has a history with Ajrakh printing dating back to the Muslim Khatri community's forebears. Ajrakh's block printing is entirely handcrafted without the use of any machinery or automation, drawing its inspiration from the hues found in nature.

The Indus Valley Civilization developed Ajrakh printing thousands of years ago, and it is being practised in the small community of Ajrakhpur today. All social classes and prestige levels wear ajrakh prints, which have the similar patterns and concepts but use various types of fabric. The capacity to keep the user warm in winter and cool in summer is attributed to the dyes' predominance of indigo and red.

Ajrakh print production has a long history of close ties to the Khatri community. The print is, nevertheless, typically worn by the rural Maldhari community. Ajrakh's main theme is the sky, which is symbolised by the colours blue for daytime, crimson for sunset, and black for nighttime. The white designs that resemble stars are stars. Separating craft clusters was significantly impacted by the country's division. Based initially in the Bhuj hamlet of Dhamadka, the community moved to Ajrakhpur, 12 kilometres distant, after the earthquake.
