In 2018, under the Narendra Modi govt the Khadi & Village Industries Commission (KVIC) raised the minimum wage of Khadi yarn spinners to Rs. 7 per hank from the Rs. 4 that was paid earlier. Depending upon the amount of work a spinner does in a day, s/he can hope to get a minimum of Rs. 200 per day. Cotton Weavers who weave simple fabric without any extra weft too get a similar minimum wage.
