One fibre. Four unique identities. Endless stories. From Mulberry to Tasar, Eri and Muga, every silk reflects India's rich diversity of traditions, regions and craftsmanship. Because silk isn't just silk it's many stories woven into one heritage. #MinistryOfTextiles #IndianSilk #SilkHeritage #IndianTextiles #MulberrySilk #TasarSilk #EriSilk #MugaSilk #IncredibleIndia

नागपुर के धापेवाड़ा में हथकरघा उद्योग की नई इमारत पारंपरिक बुनकरी को आधुनिक कार्यप्रणाली, प्रशिक्षण और उत्पादन सुविधाओं से जोड़ने का माध्यम बन रही है। इससे स्थानीय बुनकरों के कौशल को निखारने, महिलाओं को रोजगार और आर्थिक आत्मनिर्भरता के अवसर देने तथा विदर्भ की समृद्ध बुनकरी परंपरा को नए बाजारों तक पहुंचाने में मदद मिलेगी। बेकार कपड़ों से दरियां और मैट जैसे उपयोगी उत्पाद तैयार करना कौशल, रचनात्मकता और पर्यावरण संरक्षण का सुंदर उदाहरण है। यह पहल स्थानीय हुनर को नई पहचान देने और क्षेत्र में रोजगार के अवसर बढ़ाने की दिशा में महत्वपूर्ण है।

A Gamosa is not just woven fabric; it is Assam’s pride, identity and heritage stitched into every thread. 🧵 With Adarniya PM Shri @narendramodi ji’s vision of taking India’s heritage to the world and the efforts of HCM Shri @himantabiswa, our weavers are finding new recognition and our traditions, new horizons. 🇮🇳
Assam’s OG symbol of pride! 🧵 The iconic GI-tagged Gamosa is woven with tradition, offered with love, and worn with honour. Kudos to the efforts of CM @HimantaBiswa ji to give our artisans & weavers the spotlight they deserve and take Assam’s rich heritage to the global stage.
