Khadi is the fabric of freedom struggle and Father of nation. Mahatma Gandhi developed the concept of Khadi as a means to provide employment to the unemployed rural population and make them self-reliant.
Our Hon’ble PM has given the mantra of ‘Khadi for Nation, Khadi for Fashion’ and Khadi is now seen as a fashion statement. It is now used in denims, jackets, shirts, dress material, stoles, home furnishings and apparel accessories like handbags.
The campaign is to sensitise the youth towards Khadi, ‘Vocal for Local’ and make them aware about benefits of these to our economy, ecology & women empowerment and to encourage the public at large & youth in particular to buy Khadi & local products and inculcate in them pride for local products.
KVIC and National School of Drama, New Delhi is organising a Street Play Contest for the Indian students of UG/PG in India (or abroad) in collaboration with MyGov on the theme - Khadi for Nation Khadi for Fashion/Vocal for Local/ Atmanirbhar Bharat.
