Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday thanked Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma for presenting him with Ryndia silk fabric woven by women of the northeastern state.
In a letter to Sangma, Modi said people across the world are increasingly seeking products that are ethically produced and have less impact on the environment.
The CM had gifted a piece of ‘Ryndia Silk’ fabric woven by women weavers of Ri-Bhoi district. The fabric, which was granted a GI tag last year, is a symbol of Meghalaya’s cultural heritage and pride.
