“Khadi Magic: Margao MLA Unveils Treasure Trove of Local Handicrafts”
Margao MLA Digambar Kamat and Goa Khadi & Village Industries Board Chairman Anton Vas recently inaugurated a 3-day exhibition cum sale of Khadi and Village Industries products at Ravindra Bhavan, Margao. The event showcases a wide range of products highlighting Goa’s rich cultural heritage and artisanal expertise.
The exhibition features handloom fabrics, handicrafts, and other products demonstrating local artisans’ skill and creativity. By promoting these products, the event aims to empower artisans and contribute to Goa’s economic growth. Similar initiatives, such as the National-level Khadi Exhibition, have shown significant impact in strengthening India’s rural economy.
This initiative aligns with national efforts to revive handlooms as part of India’s self-reliant economy, similar to the celebration of National Handloom Day in Goa, where local weaving traditions and sustainable fashion were promoted. By supporting local artisans and indigenous products, visitors can contribute to Goa’s self-reliance initiative and help preserve the state’s cultural assets ¹ ².
