Opmerkingen

The Khadi & Village Industries Commission, established under the Industries (Development and Regulation) Act of 1951 as a statutory successor to the All India Spinners Association, issued these hundis as internal instruments to facilitate payment within the khadi production network — essentially promissory notes exchanged between weavers, spinners, and commission depots rather than currency in any formal sense. They circulated within a closed economic ecosystem deliberately insulated from the commercial banking system, reflecting Gandhian economic philosophy as institutionalized policy rather than mere symbolism.

The Reserve Bank of India never authorized these as negotiable instruments under the Negotiable Instruments Act, which raises genuine questions about their legal standing outside the KVIC network.
