Himachal Pradesh Registers Eight Traditional Products as Geographical Indications

The Himachal Pradesh government has announced the official registration of eight traditional products under the Geographical Indication (GI) scheme. This move provides these products with legal protection and a unique identity linked to the region. The GI registration helps safeguard the products from imitation and ensures that only genuine items bearing the name can be marketed. The government expects the new status to enhance the market reach and economic prospects of local artisans and farmers.
