#VandeBharat | What was once considered a weed is now emerging as a source of livelihood and innovation in Rajasthan. Through a unique initiative supported by the Ministry of Textiles, fibres extracted from the Aak plant are being transformed into warm, lightweight products such as jackets, shawls, gloves, and blankets.
