In a significant rise for khadi and other handicrafts, Jharkhand is all set to become the first Indian state to have a dedicated mall for indigenous produces.

The Khadi mall would come up in Jharkhand's Heavy Engineering Corporation (HEC) campus area which is also giving way for the Ranchi Smart City.

Jharkhand Chief Minister, Raghubar Das while addressing the 'Karigar Panchayat' organized by the Khadi Board at the Tana Bhagat Indoor Stadium informed that within 15 days, land in the HEC area will be made available to the Khadi Board to develop the country's first Khadi mall.
