On our way back from Khalo dhordo we stopped by at a hamlet adjoined to the main market of Khavda,it's primary population is potters.The family we visited has been keeping up with the tradition since 3 generations and i think that there has been outside help from which they have developed designed wares and painted clay articles. It was surprising to see rolls of bubble wrap,these little things has taken me aback at times! Commercial sensibility/intervention in a place which is the least populated regions of india,which has been seismically damaged wiping off an entire village,where people have to travel a 30km to a hospital and the movement of outsiders into this region limited by a strict permit policy  is a bit of a shock.
