Khadi is a hand spun and hand woven cloth. Its concept was developed by Mahatma Ghandi, who elevated the fragile thread of cotton to a symbol of
strength and self-sufficiency. It was to become a symbol of India’s fight for independence. It is mainly woven in rural areas of India and was Ghandi’s vision of providing self-employment to the rural populace of India. Khadi over the decades has evolved from a freedom fighter’s identity cloth to a highly desirable fashion conscious fabric.
The Khadi concept is spirit of freedom, dignity of labour, protection and rights of artisans, concern for the poorest of poor and small is beautiful.
