"Gadkari appreciated the gift box saying it is an apt product to celebrate the spirit of festivals while also ensuring safety. He lauded the mask-making initiative of KVIC saying this provided the artisans with sustainable livelihood during the most difficult time of corona pandemic," the MSME Ministry said.

KVIC Chairman Vinai Kumar Saxena said the idea behind launching the gift box is to tap the foreign market as a large Indian population is looking for reasonably priced gift items for their loved ones during the festival season.
