Abstract: The marketing effect of vehicular art in new method to regenerate clothing design in South Asia fashion industry. For this module I was to think of a thought that would be comprehensively acknowledged in the South Asia Fashion Industry or change the flow of it. Accordingly, I chose to settle for something that I see as novel and creative and could well be that it will hit the South Asian design industry as the most recent pattern in future if legitimate arranging and advertising systems are embraced to guarantee the supportability of this imaginative thought. This will raise the social wiped out plan into the form business in novel outline and style, which will be generally acknowledged and won't blur away a social legacy plan into the past.

Furthermore, the study was anchored on the theory of systemic oppression and frustration as a theoretical framework of analysis. Finding indicates that too many factors breeds inter and intra communal crisis, one of which is supremacy among the feuding communities and quest or struggle for resource control. Recommendations were that government should address issues that breed communal crisis, especially maintaining balance in making political appointments and sitting of public projects.
