Ghaisas emphasized the campaign's dual purpose of involving citizens in this holy work while promoting the art of handloom, stating that handloom requires skills akin to engineering.

"Our intention is also to promote Handloom for which I have been working for a long time. Handloom isn't easy it requires mathematical precision, patience, and science so it is no less than any engineering," Ghaisas added.

She further said they have put an expert on every handloom installed to guide whoever wants to weave.

The vastras for Ram Lalla will predominantly be crafted from silk and adorned with silver zari, informed Ghaisas.

The campaign received a boost with the visit of Union Minister Smriti Irani and Govind Dev Giri Maharaj from the Ram Temple Trust. Both of them participated in the handloom activities, underscoring the widespread support for this initiative. (ANI)
