New Delhi, July 23

The Government has reconstituted the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC), with Ms Kumud Joshi as the Chairperson.

The Government had dissolved the commission in October 2004 in an attempt to `revamp' it. The Government has also appointed the zonal members, expert members in science and technology, marketing, rural development and technical education and training and ex-officio members of KVIC.

The total KVI production for 2005-06 up till January 2006 is estimated at Rs 9,150.65 crore (Rs 8,461.49 crore), registering a growth of 8.14 per cent.
