First Home of India Handloom Brand Products" Exhibition cum sale inaugurated by Union Textiles Minister
I want to take India Handloom Brand to the entire country. In order to make handloom products more popular in the current scenario, it becomes imperative to produce good quality, defect-free handloom fabrics with good colour-fastness that do not contain harmful dyes. There is also a need to widen the range of products in order to cater to a larger audience, especially the youth, which today has access to fashion from across the globe. The Indian handloom industry has a glorious past and we are committed towards the resurgence of hand-woven textiles and also our weavers, whose welfare and development remains our key focus.
