Today, people and specially the youth, are not only aware of khadi but consider it as a cool addition to their wardrobe. Through the ‘Corporate Khadi Mela’, CapitalVia Global Research is making an endeavor to promote the interest of rural artisans.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Prem Prakash, Chief Business Officer, CapitalVia Global Research Ltd said; “This is a great opportunity for us as we hope our association with the Khadi department will help make khadi popular amongst corporates and youth alike. Our aim is to support ‘Make In India’ initiative of Indian government and we believe Khadi is well poised to create its niche as the garment of choice, as it has evolved over the years in terms of modern style and remains affordable.”

“We are proud to be associated with CapitalVia as we are look forward to forging more such tie ups to promote a ‘Make in India’ product and also help rural artisans earn a livelihood. Every year Khadi worth Rs 900 crore is sold in India and now the department is aiming to reach to Rs 2000 crore sales in the next five years” said Mr. P.K.
