Gandhinagar (Gujarat) [India], October 2 (ANI): In line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call for “Vocal for Local” and “Har Ghar Swadeshi, Ghar Ghar Swadeshi,” Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel has adopted an approach to provide substantial discounts on Khadi, the symbol of Swadeshi, starting this Gandhi Jayanti.
To realise Mahatma Gandhi’s vision of Khadi, CM announced a 30% special market promotion assistance on the production cost of Swadeshi products — Khadi and Polyvastra — starting from Gandhi Jayanti, October 2, 2025. Consumers can avail this benefit as a rebate on Khadi purchases until December 31.
This decision to provide a discount on Khadi will promote wider production, sale, and use of indigenous goods, furthering the vision of an Atmanirbhar and prosperous India, aligning with the Prime Minister’s motto “Khadi for Nation – Khadi for Fashion.”
The 30% special market promotion assistance announced on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti is expected to boost sales of Khadi and Polyvastra products across the state. This includes items crafted by artisans of cooperatives and organisations, such as mat, carpet, silk patola, woollen sweaters, jerseys, shawls, and various Khadi ready-made garments and handcrafted goods.
Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel’s decision will bring a financial boost to rural artisans producing and selling Khadi and Gram Udyog items this Diwali.
The Khadi Board will organise Khadi and Polyvastra exhibition-cum-sale fairs at multiple locations across the state this Gandhi Jayanti.
This Gandhi Jayanti, exhibition-cum-sale fairs will be held at Bharuch from October 5-14 Chikhli from November 5-14 and Vapi from November 16-25 (ANI)
