#In the past decades, India’s toy industry was getting destroyed due to competition from the foreign toy industry. With the efforts of the government, the situation is now changing. Now there is a decline in toys imported from abroad
#Khadi was made the symbol of the country’s self-respect by Gandhiji during the freedom movement. But, the same Khadi was seen with inferior feelings after Independence. Because of such thinking Khadi & rural industries related to Kahdi were ruined.
#We’ve seen that Khadi became the force of the freedom movement & broke the chains of slavery. The same Khadi can become an inspiration to make India developed & self-reliant.
