The KVIC has initiated a “Ready to Use Mission” during 2005- 06 for Khadi products. Under the scheme, a major Khadi institution works as a lead institution where all modern facilities for production of garments including covering, designing, finishing, packaging, etc., are installed. Other institutions (at least 9) working in the nearby areas are associated in a concentric manner with the activities of the lead institution.


As a result, all of them will be able to upgrade their product quality by sharing their experiences and common facilities installed at the lead institution. National Institute of Fashion Technology is the technical consultant for the projects being set up under the scheme.


KVIC has identified 5 mission projects for production of “Ready to use Khadi” in the country. 2 projects at Murshidabad (West Bengal) and Padiyur (Tamil Nadu) at a cost of Rs. 57.50 lakh each have already been started in 2005-06. NIFT Calcutta & Chennai have been enlisted to provide hand-holding support in the areas of design inputs, training, etc.
