The Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises in collaboration with MyGov, India is organizing the Khadi Mahotsav Quiz Contest from October 2 to October 31, 2023, in online mode.
Khadi is the fabric of freedom struggle and the Father of the nation. Mahatma Gandhi developed the concept of Khadi as a means to provide employment to the unemployed rural population.
Hon’ble PM has given the mantra of ‘Khadi for Nation, Khadi for Fashion’, and Khadi is now seen as a fashion statement. It is now used in denim, jackets, shirts, dress material, stoles, home furnishings, and apparel accessories like handbags.
With an objective of promoting Khadi and Village Industries, Handloom and handicraft products, ODOP products, and products of various traditional and cottage industries manufactured locally and to further promote the idea of the “Vocal for Local” campaign and ‘AtmaNirbhar Bharat Abhiyan’ envisioned by the Hon’ble Prime Minister, Govt. of India has initiated Special Campaign “Khadi Mahotsav”.
The campaign will be organized across the country from October 2 to October 31 every year.
KVIC in collaboration with MyGov is hosting the ‘Khadi Mahotsav Quiz Contest’ to sensitize the youth towards Khadi, ‘Vocal for Local’ and make them aware of the benefits of these to economy, ecology & women empowerment and to catalyze the public at large & youth, in particular, to buy Khadi & local products and inculcate in them pride for local products.
This is a timed quiz with 10 questions to be answered in 300 seconds. There will be no negative marking.
