India is a treasure trove of mesmerizing ethnic arts, crafts and textiles. Every nook, every corner of India has something to offer to the buyer and collectors from around the globe. Over the years with the passing of time, so many of our artistic treasures had gradually started going extinct from the surface of this ancient land.
Many of our brilliant craftsmen and weavers had gradually started moving to other menial jobs for their livelihood, seeing no prospects for their age-old creative profession. It was indeed an extremely sad sight for the lovers of ethnic goods.
Our heartfelt thanks, gratitude and total admiration goes to Sri Narendra Modi Goverment for bringing about a revival in our age-old ethnic arts, crafts and textiles in a real big way, fully using all the latest 21st Century Digital Technology.

I am sharing here some of the news articles and videos with my readers from around the globe to see how much is the dedication & relentless efforts of Modi Government in this direction for bringing about a true revival.
