H E Indra Mani Pandey, the Ambassador of India to Oman addressing a press conference on Sunday said that the ten-day event is part of the celebrations to mark the 60th year of India-Oman diplomatic relations.

The collection will have painted, printed, woven, non-woven, embroidered and embellished textiles. It will showcase the influence of new materials, machine and handspun yarn and use of dyes in Indian textiles.
