As part of the Pongal 2027 gift hamper for nearly 2.23 crore ration cardholders in Tamil Nadu, the state government will distribute good quality and attractive dhotis and sarees by bringing in major changes to the garments to make them attractive and comfortable.
The dhotis and sarees will come with new golden, silver or copper colored polyester zari borders, it was said on Thursday. Apart from the familiar blue-and-white design, blue, pink and ivory-white variants, sarees will also be made available in brighter greens and colours, according to an official.
