Fibre was extracted from stem of Dhaincha (Sesbania aculelata) by 15 days tank retting. It is harsh, coarse and shiny fibre but lacks the elasticity, which was further processed for scouring with 1 per cent KOH and bleached with 1 per cent H2O2. Treated fibres which were obtained after treatment with 1 per cent KOH and 1 per cent H2O2 had good in strength, fineness, moisture regain, elongation and whiteness index.Keywords

Indian textile industry is a major contributor to the Indian economy which is evident by its high employment generation capability and export potential. The industry comprises of various segments ranging from capital intensive spinning to labour intensive garmenting and highly unorganized sectors like handloom, sericulture, etc. For effective and efficient implementation, the industry requires upto date technology, skilled workforce, and funds for procuring infrastructure, machinery, etc. Recognizing the significance of the industry, Government of India has launched various schemes under the aegis of Ministries of Textiles and Commerce. These schemes have helped not only in augmenting the domestic market but also realizing its true potential in export. Each scheme has specific objectives covering different segments of the industry. Guidelines are issued for the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the projects for which various committees are also formed. An attempt has been made through the article to present brief description about different schemes launched for betterment of the textile industry.Keywords

The dried ribbons of Sesbania aculeata (Dhaincha) plant were retted by chemical and biological retting methods. In first chemical retting method, the fibres were treated with the combination of EDTA and NaOH whereas in second method pretreated with HCl followed by NaOH; In biological retting method both the stagnant and running water methods were utilized. The retted fibres were tested for physical properties such as, moisture content and weightloss. The percentage weight loss was found to be more in case of chemically retted fibres owing to the enhanced digestibility of lignocellulosic material by the alkali. Contrary to this, biological retting showed higher moisture content due to the presence of non cellulosic matter. Overall, the properties exhibited by Sesbania aculeata fibres obtained after 15 days of stagnant water retting was comparatively good as compared to other retting methods in terms of weight loss and moisture content.Keywords
