What does this status mean?

Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.

Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.

Original manifesto wording

“We will develop Craft Village Complexes with Experience Zones, Trade Facilitation Centres and Galleries to build a holistic ecosystem for traditional artisans. Under this, we will set up Craft Villages in: Ajrakhpur (Block printing); Nirona (Rogan painting); Hodka (Traditional craft embroidery); Khavda (Clay pottery); Dhordo (Chain-stitch work); Sumrasar (Soof embroidery); Loria (Embroidered footwear); Nakhatrana (Bandhani work); Padhdhar (Ahir embroidery); Anjar (Metal crafts).”

Our Assessment

Official tourism material promotes existing artisan villages, including Nirona's Rogan workshops, and describes Gujarat's craft centres. This verifies living craft activity and visitor engagement. It does not establish newly delivered complexes with experience zones, trade facilitation and galleries at all ten named locations. Existing village crafts are credited as relevant services without being counted as ten completed infrastructure projects.

The reasoning behind the verdict

Why this assessment?

Reviewed

01 · Delivery status

Why partially done?

Relevant services are verified, but material elements of the commitment remain unverified.

02 · Strength of evidence

Why medium confidence?

Official or corroborated reporting supports related delivery, but coverage or the promised expansion is incompletely documented.

What would help us reassess?

The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.

  • Site-wise complex scope, commissioned experience zones, trade facilities and galleries
