The Yogi Adityanath government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Amazon to promote the khadi apparels manufactured in the state under the brand of UP Khadi over its online marketplace. Besides Team Amazon would educate and train the khadi artisans to directly sell their products to online customers. We would deploy our team to train UP khadi artisans associated with khadi units that are onboard with us Amazon India Director & GM Gopal Pillai said here. He claimed there was rising demand for khadi products globally and it was becoming the fabric of choice for the people especially youth. Since UP is famous for distinct traditional industries across its 75 districts he said the company would be willing to consider other such products as well in the league of UP Khadi if there is adequate demand apart from commensurate state government push. Meanwhile UP khadi & village industries principal secretary Navneet Sehgal noted the tie-up with Amazon offered a big platform to state khadi products and would benefit khadi manufacturing units and artisans. The MoU would fetch remunerative returns to these units and do away with middlemen he added. So far 7 UP khadi organisations are onboard and 40 are in the pipeline. Earlier chief minister Yogi Adityanath had also stressed khadi to ride the online bandwagon for growth and youth appeal. He had even directed officials to develop a portal for marketing of khadi products and boosting entrepreneurship for creating jobs. He had stressed for strong brand positioning of UP Khadi . Besides the state is also considering creating a comprehensive database/repository comprising a gamut of food and non-food products of the state. The government is seeking private investment in the khadi space apart from ensuring that resources and infrastructure were optimally utilised. Adityanath had also underlined that an action plan is drafted for deep research on khadi design standardisation and marketing support. Further UP is also promoting Khadi under its flagship One District One Product scheme which aims at nurturing district specific traditional industries and handicrafts. The government would set up industrial clusters to support such industries and to add value to the products. In fact the state government has adopted Gujarat Model to boost khadi based manufacturing and marketing. Khadi is expected to boost bottom of pyramid manufacturing and creating fresh job opportunities. Last year the Adityanath cabinet had increased subsidy on the sale of khadi products from 10% to 15%. The incentive would be given if the khadi products are manufactured in the state. The subsidy to be reimbursed through direct benefit transfer would be equally divided between the weavers/spinners manufacturer vand marketer.
