Write about Ahimsa Silk.
✓
Answer
It is also known as Peace silk.
In 1992, Kusuma Rajaiah, a Government officer from Andhra Pradesh state of India proposed ahimsa way of silk production for the making silks without killing the silkworm.
It involves a humane method specifically letting the worms to hatch and then using the vacant cocoons.
Traditional silk manufacturing methods involve boiling the cocoons of the silk worms and then sorting out the threads, which is used later in silk production.
It has been supported by many people who are interested in the welfare of animals.
