摘要：

Khadi is an indigenous handloom industry of India which has an imperative legacy attached with the Indian Freedom Movement.. Khadi means any fabric which is hand-woven using a spinning wheel called 'Charkha'. In the pre-industrialized era, Kltadi was one of the most prominent indigenous fabrics, which promoted self-reliance and self-sufficiency in the rural areas. But post-independent India experienced a sudden upsurge in technology-intensive, urban textile mills. This paper studies the Lite-Cycle stages of production of Khadi-handloom fabrics, through a comprehensive life-cycle assessment (LCA) performed using GaBi software; to assess its energy consumption and environmental impacts. It was observed that production of Khadi-handloom fabric is environmentally sustainable and socially more inclusive as compared to mass-produced textiles, Furthermore, socio-economic and cultural dimensions were added as an extension to LCA to fornmlate an integrated Khadi-based rural development model. The proposed model provides an alternative paradigm for local community-based sustainable rural development. (C) 2018 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
