The silence makes it difficult to believe that it was less than two years ago that the village rose like a phoenix from the epic floods of 2018 which nearly wiped out the iconic industry. The looms had just begun to sing after the 2018 floods and relatively less intense trial by water in 2019 when COVID-19 hit it like a tsunami, wiping out gains from two years of tribulations.
