The Khadi Bhawan at Connaught Place in Delhi has recorded the highest-ever sale of Khadi and Village Industries products of over 1.5 crore rupees on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti.

Mr. Kumar said this new record for the sale of Khadi and Village Industries products shows that people have a special attachment towards Khadi.
