Atmanirbhar Bharat, the term literally translates to ‘self-reliant India.’ However, the meaning is much deeper than just its literal translation for any Indian artist. It’s not just a term used to specify that India is an independent and self-subsistent country; it’s a mission, an idea, and a vision.
The ‘Make-in-India’ initiative which was launched by our Honorable Prime Minister, was launched to encourage the concept of self-reliance in hearts of every citizen of India especially Indian artist. Though the initiative was launched in 2014, its seeds were sown by the Father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi, when he encouraged the use of ‘Khadi’- an India curated fabric popularly worn by the Indian diaspora. This initiative was launched to empower Indian artist with technology of creating the fabric in India and create the country’s individual identity as a free nation.
Taking inspiration from our age old legacy and the philosophy of ‘Make in India’ and ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’, India Exposition Mart Ltd., which is one of India’s frontrunners for hosting major events and fairs such as the IHGF handicrafts trade fair and Auto expo, launched its subsidiary ExpoBazaar. Being a B2B e-commerce platform showcasing India’s heritage artisanal and lifestyle products to new and global markets, ExpoBazaar is contributing towards the rapid digitalization of the handicraft market in India.
