The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, was today presented a unique portrait created through the technique of "IKAT" or "Tie and Dye." The portrait of Shri Narendra Modi is a creation of Shri Surendra Meher, made in the style of traditional IKAT weaving from Odisha. Shri Surendra Meher is a national and UNESCO awardee.
The portrait is a unique experiment in fusion of tradition and modernity in IKAT weaving.
The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam-
“अल्पानामपि वस्तूनां संहतिः कार्यसाधिका।
तृणैर्गुणत्वमापन्नैर्बध्यन्ते मत्तदन्तिनः॥”
The Sanskrit Subhashitam conveys that even small things, when brought together in a well-planned manner, can accomplish great tasks, and that a rope made of hay sticks can even entangle powerful elephants.
The Prime Minister wrote on X;
“अल्पानामपि वस्तूनां संहतिः कार्यसाधिका।
तृणैर्गुणत्वमापन्नैर्बध्यन्ते मत्तदन्तिनः॥”
अल्पानामपि वस्तूनां संहतिः कार्यसाधिका।
