He said, “The actual range of a khadi shirt begins from just Rs 275 and moves upwards. The quality is comparable with cotton or synthetic products. In fact, apart from exports done by KVIC, there are a lot of entrepreneurs who are exporting khadi textile products, too.
“However what needs to be seen is that clothing made from khadi fabrics are the most suitable for the hot and humid Indian weather, apart from which by buying a khadi product, a consumer is directly helping the lowest strata of society, who are involved in khadi production”, he wrapped up by saying.
Mr Anupam Mazumdar, Director - Genesis Design, a textile design consultancy and also a die-hard khadi fan however had the last word on the inherent quality of khadi when he noted by saying, “The biggest advantage of wearing khadi is that it carries the lowest carbon footprint among all textiles, which makes it a sustainable fabric”.
