    Surat: ‘Saree is not a backwardness, a proud idea – Saree Walkathon will give a boost to the industry too!’

    Saree is not a cloth or a garment but the soul of India. It is such a rich heritage and power that it cannot be summed up in trivial words. If a woman is standing wearing a saree, then a person from any corner of the world will understand that she is from India. The contribution of sarees in the country is so high that it becomes difficult to calculate it. There are many types of sarees like Madhubani, Chaupai, Coral silk, Katha, Kosa silk, Tanchi, Jamdani, Jamwar, Baluchari, Chundadi, Patola, Banarasi, Tangail etc.

    These sarees represent the unity between diversity from east to west and north to south. Half of the country’s population has merged into one formula. Saree is one of the ancient garments of the world. Today Surat is known for its sarees. Sarees have made Surat a mini India. People from Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Orissa, Maharashtra and other such states have come and settled here associated with this profession. Today, if you visit different areas of Surat, then the dress of the women there shows that more people of that state live in that area.

    One of the objectives of Saree Walkathon is also to give the message of Fit India. Its purpose is also special. Gym and fitness are out of reach for women. Women are so busy with household chores that despite knowing it, they are not able to give time to fitness. Apart from this, Prime Minister Modi’s message is Made in India, vocal for local and the saree industry has contributed a lot in this. Lakhs of people and weavers are involved in the saree business in the country. This plan will give him strength. Especially a section of the youth consider it old.

    Actually saree is not a backwardness but a thinking of pride. Women of Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Parsi, Vohra and almost every community wear saree in different regions of our country. Saree Walkathon is truly a message to showcase and enhance this rich heritage and tradition of India. Surat has become Manchester of India because of saree business. Today, the textile trade in Surat is worth more than 80 thousand crores annually and provides employment to about 15 lakh people. India is currently leading the G20. W20 (Women 20) of G20 also participated in Saree Walkathon which is a matter of pride for Surat.
