Charkha
recently in India, women could not inherit real property. She was trained to be the perfect bride and must excel in domestic tasks to provide for her family such as cooking, cleaning and spinning. In rural India, rules were set up so that so that a man could not marry a girl from his own village, so when a girl got married, she had to leave her village. In order to compensate the girl for her share of the land, she was given a dowry when she married that would allow her to complete her duties as a wife, including large sums of cash, household items and a charkha. This charkha might be highly decorated if the girl came from a wealthy family. Women would spin as part of their daily routine and would often get together in groups to spin and socialize (much like a quilting bee in rural America). Cotton and silk both are traditional fibers spun on the charkha. They would weave cloth or rugs from their spun yarn. When Gandhi came along, India was under British colonial rule. Cotton was grown in India where the men would harvest it and the British would ship this cotton back to England and have it woven and spun into cloth which was then shipped back to India and sold at a price that the people could not afford. In order to resist against the British, Gandhi encouraged the men to spin (which was traditionally women's work) and weave their own cloth and wear clothing made from this homespun cloth. This cloth was called khaddar or khadi (meaning rough). As part of the passive resistance movement, Gandhi would often spin in public. Since the traditional charkha was typically bulky and difficult to move, he needed a charkha that could be transported easily. He held a contest to design a charkha that would be compact, portable and affordable. The box design of charkha won that contest. Tradition states that the accelerator wheel was an idea of Gandhi's. This experiment of Gandhi eventually forced the British to leave India because the men were not harvesting the cotton and the use of khaddar cut out the market for the British made cloth. India gained economic independence from England. This is why some Indian money has a charkha on it and the Congress Party in India placed a charkha on their flag. And later on when people uses khadi as their clothes this becomes in use of people to spin charkhe to spin yarn to make cotton in their routine practice. THE END
