How has this tradition been preserved and passed on from one generation to another?
These traditions are being preserved in different ways. This kind of handicraft work is very popular with people and people are always dependent on handicrafts. People like to buy different types of hobby items and these kinds of works are usually done by different types of people. Those who do such work know very well about these works and they are very skilled in this kind of handicraft work. And their generations have been watching these works and they are also contributing to the society by learning these works. Many families earn their living by doing such works and the younger members of their families also become interested in this work by seeing such works done in their homes and can easily gain an idea about these works and learn. In this way, these works are still prevalent from generation to generation.

What obstacles can threaten this tradition and what can be done to preserve it for future generations?
The problem of fair market value can threaten this type of work because many people's lives depend on this work. If they do not get fair value for their work, they will not be interested in doing this type of work and in the future we will not be able to see handmade items and in the future it will be difficult to find such handicrafts and these items are very popular with all of us. We feel comfortable using various types of items made of wood and currently many people buy wooden items and if these items are not properly paid, the workers will lose interest in this type of work and this type of talent will be lost. There are many ways to contribute to preserving it for future generations. To preserve such talent in future generations, we should give more importance to such handicrafts. So that the workers are more interested in making them and their use should be increased.
