Union Minister for Culture Inaugurated Exhibition on Indian Embroideries

The Union Minister for Culture Chandresh Kumari Katoch on 2 September 2013 inaugurated an exclusive exhibition on Indian embroideries- named Resurgence. The exhibition showcases revival of India’s weaves and embroideries.

It is worth noticing that India has huge untapped potential of craftsmen and artisans and such platforms pave way for the restoration of the indigenous handicraft and enhance inter-state cultural discourse. Indian handicrafts usually get a lot of recognition from all over the world.

During the inaugural function, the Union Minister for Culture also felicitated artisans for their exquisite work in embroidery. On the occasion, a symposium on Textile and Embroidery Traditions across India was also organised. 

The exhibition known as Resurgence has been opened from 2 September 2013 to 15 September 2013 at the Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts.
