Cotton Khadi (Everyday Wear and Utility Items)

Cotton Khadi (Everyday Wear and Utility Items)

Cotton Khadi is a traditional hand-spun and handwoven fabric widely used for everyday clothing and utility items. In Assam, the Khadi sector supports rural livelihoods while promoting sustainable and eco-friendly textile production.

Cotton Khadi represents a significant segment of Assam’s traditional textile and handloom sector, reflecting the state’s rich heritage of hand-spinning and weaving. The fabric is widely used for everyday wear, such as shirts, kurtas, sarees, and various utility items, including bags, home textiles, and accessories. Fiscal incentives such as financial assistance, subsidies, and credit support provided through government schemes for Khadi and village industries can encourage the establishment and expansion of production units. Non-fiscal support such as skill development programmes, design innovation, marketing assistance, e-commerce platforms, and participation in national and international exhibitions can help enhance the competitiveness and market reach of Cotton Khadi products from Assam.
