%X Even before venturing into the contemporary evaluation of the entire Khadi industry there is a need to look at the 'foundation philosophy' on which the entire edifice of the Khadi industry was built. What are its historical roots, role in shaping the Indian rural employment policy and its relevance today? To what extent did the ideology actually got implemented? Does it have any contemporary relevance? Theseare some of prominent questions that keep arising when one ventures to understand the Khadi industry; the very name of which connotes a novel aura with historical and ideological significance embedded in it.
