Sangma also shared a letter received from the Prime Minister, who expressed gratitude to the CM for presenting a piece of ‘Ryndia Silk’ fabric, a symbol of Meghalaya’s cultural heritage and pride. “Your thoughtfulness is touching and is deeply appreciated,” the PM wrote.
The PM also stated in the letter, “Today, people around the world are increasingly seeking products that not only minimise the impact on the environment, but are also ethically produced, reflecting a growing global commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. It is in this context that products such as ‘Ryndia Silk’ stand out. The grant of the GI Tag to it is yet another step that reiterates our resolve to promote such products on the global stage.”
“Whenever I have visited Meghalaya, I have been overwhelmed by the affection of the people, the pristine natural beauty and the unlimited potential of its energetic youth. Together, we will continue to serve the people of the state and ensure that Meghalaya plays a key role in the creation of Viksit Bharat,” he concluded.
