Known for its intricate weaves and vibrant designs, Nagaland’s handloom products include shawls, scarves, and tribal garments that are highly valued both locally and internationally. Government initiatives aimed at skill development, capacity building, and market access have resulted in a 12% increase in sectoral income over the past five years.
