Plan to revive handloom industry with fashion event
New Delhi: Delhi govt has planned to revive Delhi Khadi and Village Industries Board by giving more exposure to the local handloom industry. This initiative will begin with a fashion show, Vastra Katha, in the city. Industries minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa said the govt had formed a comprehensive plan to revive the board, which was currently in bad shape. It is CM Rekha Gupta's vision to revive the board, he added. "To start with, Delhi will host a first-of-its-kind handloom day event for climate and culture," Sirsa said. The mega event will be organised on National Handloom Day on Aug 6 under Delhi Khadi and Village Industries Board to revive Delhi's handloom heritage and promote climate-conscious fashion, the minister said. It will blend tradition, sustainability and youth-led innovation through a curated exhibition, GI-tagged textiles and a fashion ramp walk themed on the Vedic civilisation.
