๐ Weaving in India
๐ Context : On National Textile Day, a tribute was paid to the rich tradition of Indian weavers, showcasing their significant contributions to India's heritage.
๐ History of Weaving in India

๐ Vedic Period (Rigveda, 1500โ500 BCE): Mentions of weavers as "vaya" (male) and "vayitri" (female), highlighting the craftโs early roots.
๐น Post-Vedic Period: The Mahabharata mentions silk fabrics, while Buddhist texts describe textiles like linen, cotton, and silk, emphasizing the importance of weavers.
๐ Mughal Empire (1526โ1857): Flourishing of luxury textiles like brocades, muslins, and velvets through Karkhanas (workshops). Sericulture expanded in Kashmir, as noted in the Tarikh-i-Rashidi.
