Govt orders employees to wear Khadi on Wednesdays


THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The State government has directed all the government employees and teachers in Kerala to wear Khadi-Handloom apparels on Wednesdays.

The order will come into effect from January 1 onwards. An order regarding this by minister C.N. Balakrishnan was approved by Chief Minister Oommen Chandy.

The previous government had directed, in vain, to wear Khadi-Handloom apparels on Saturdays.

The move is a part of the effort to involve employees and teachers in the protection of the Khadi-Handloom sector.
