What we know
Employment in Bhadohi's carpet sector is exposed to export markets. In December 2025 the Commerce Ministry told the Lok Sabha that the short observation period and other economic factors prevented it from isolating the precise effect of US tariffs.
Open questions
- How many weavers and workers does the carpet sector employ today, compared with 2024?
- How have Bhadohi's carpet exports to the US changed since the tariffs?
