New Delhi, November 24, 2025: Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai visited the Chhattisgarh Pavilion at the India International Trade Fair held at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi today and praised the products and innovations on display.
The Chief Minister stated that Chhattisgarh is consistently establishing a strong presence on global trade platforms.
“The growing demand for Chhattisgarhi products among buyers from India and abroad is strengthening the local economy and honouring our artisans. This is an important step towards our resolve for a Self-Reliant Chhattisgarh,” Sai said.
Chhattisgarh’s traditional arts, handicrafts, forest-produce-based products, and traditional crafts are establishing their distinctive identity in the global market, he said.
The Chief Minister commended the exhibition’s displays of Kosa silk, metal crafts, Dhokra art, natural forest-based products, millet-based food products, and innovative models of micro-enterprises.
He appreciated the pavilion’s rich heritage and artifacts. While watching the documentary “Badalta Bastar (Aamcho Bastar)” broadcast on digital TV, he said that the documentary clearly shows today’s new Bastar. Bastar has changed, and this documentary provides a vivid glimpse of that change.
The Chief Minister said that the state government is continuously strengthening various schemes and institutional support to bring tribal and rural products to national and international markets.
Industry Minister Lakhan Lal Dewangan, Lok Sabha MPs Kamlesh Jangde and Brijmohan Agrawal, and other public representatives and officials were present on the occasion.
