The world is largely turning towards timeless elegance. The changing mindsets of people in the post-pandemic world have made khadi a sought-after choice again. The timeless fabric is perfectly versatile, works for both summer and winter, and can easily be adapted to appeal to a younger, more global audience. And, since everyone is looking for organic and sustainable options right now, it’s a great fit.
Designers across the country are working towards breaking the ‘traditional’ stereotype associated with khadi. Working hard towards making it India’s definition of handmade luxury, they are experimenting with the hand-woven textile to create limitless combinations of colour, weight and character.

The National.
“Short-term, it will allow the banking system to finally establish corresponding relationships with banks overseas. For the past 27 years, I think all of Sudan had one bank – one corresponding relationship with the world,” Amro Zakaria Abdu, chief executive of Madarik Finance, said.
“That, in a way, crippled the banking system and it made it much more expensive for people to secure loans or loan guarantees. Because you always had to go through third parties … that would charge exuberant amounts of interest,” he added.
