A number of MLAs who have been contacted by the organisation are excited over the idea and have given their consent to participate in the show. "It is a very good idea. The condition of weavers in the state is very bad. I think their cause will also be promoted though the show," said one of BJP young faces, an MLA from Patna West, Nitin Navin.
MLA from Darbhanga, Sanjay Saryaogi appeared to be the most excited of the lot. He has already started practising cat walking by seeing fashion shows on television. "I am very excited. I am ready to do anything to promote khadi," he said.
Along with the MLAs, professional models will also take the ramp with khadi wears. The organisers have also extended an invitation to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi for the show.
The invitation, however, is only to inaugurate the show and not walk the ramp. Their confirmation of participation was still awaited, said the organisers.
