Talk:Gamucha

of course 'gamucha' is not a religious clothing. It is a poor man's towel in Bengal, Bihar and Odisha. If the priests ever use it in the temple, it is because of their poverty, or poverty of the donors. Now a days all priets wear a decent dhoti and a decent upper cloth, sometimes they wear silk/semi-silk bright-coloured dhoti and upper cloth.

You may kindly remove the topic 'gamucha' entirely, and definitely as a form of religious garment. It is not true, and does not speak very weel of the practice. I am a practicing Hindu.

 * The "Gamucha" is also found in Assam and it is a cultural symbol of the Assamese people. I think the name should be "Gamocha" not "Gamucha" Jpnath008 (talk) 12:46, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Why not same as "gamosa"?
These two articles are "not to be confused with" each other, but why? It appears to be essentially the same word, and both articles say it is used as a towel, as a loincloth, etc. Equinox ◑ 01:08, 22 April 2018 (UTC)


 * These are not same word. One is "gam-sa" and other is "ga-mu-sa". দিব্য দত্ত (talk) 06:21, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

dismaal - a typo?
dismaal seems to be a typo but it is not obvious what it should be - can anyone figure out what it should be? (from Correct typos in one click)
