Textile Ministry Unites Sari Lovers On Twitter With #MySariMyPride
This is great!
India is a country of colours and cultures. With diversity sitting at its core, India’s rich history in art, craft, and fashion is celebrated around the globe. The country is a treasure of a million shades, embroideries, and fabrics that makes it a destination for shoppers from the deepest pockets of the world. And as we enjoy the westernised side of our wardrobes, the idea of draping an heirloom sari is always a delight.
With this motive to popularise India’s bond with the sari, and its variety, the Ministry Of Textiles is hosting a unique exhibition in Delhi. TitledโMy Sari, My Pride โ Ek Virasat, the exhibit starting from December 16, 2022, is aimed to display a wide variety of 72 saris. Putting rich handloom on display, the exhibition has found its venue at Janpath in New Delhi. Promoting the unique idea, many politicians, and ministers have been tweeting about the exhibition with the #MySariMyPride.

The word โsariโ originates from the southwestern Dravidian word sire. It is a beautiful blend of tradition & modernity, which remains timeless and an iconic Indian attire for the whole world.#MySariMyPride pic.twitter.com/TwK9UWGiV5— MyGovIndia (@mygovindia) December 16, 2022
Tweeting about it, Leader of the House in Rajya SabhaโPiyush Goyal encouraged sari lovers to visit the unique exhibition and promote it on Twitter using the hashtag. Later, Union State Minister of Textilesโ Darshana Jardosh, Minister of Finance and Corporate AffairsโNirmala Sitharaman and their Parliamentarian colleagues also visited the exhibition to look at the wide variety. Celebrating India’s rich legacy in handloom, and craft, the range incorporates many types of this silhouette likeโBanarsi, Chanderi, Bandhani, Nauvari, and more.
If you are a Sari lover, do not miss this & if you are not one, definitely visit.
