Question
What is Ryndia, which recently received a Geographical
Indication (GI) tag?Solution
Ryndia is a distinctive handwoven fabric from Meghalaya that recently received a Geographical Indication (GI) tag along with Khasi handloom products. Ryndia silk is hand-spun, naturally dyed, organically produced, and ethically sourced. It's known as "Peace silk" or "Ahimsa silk" because its fibers come from the cocoon of the domesticated eri silkworm without killing the silkworms—making it the only silk extracted without harming silkworms. This traditional and sustainable fabric is produced by indigenous Khasi, Bhoi, and Jaintia artisans of Meghalaya.
