PM Modi Gifts Jharkhand's Sohrai Painting To Putin At BRICS Summit

Artists often use brushes made from twigs, rice straw or even fingers to create intricate designs for Sohrai paintings.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi showcased Maharashtra's handcrafted works to the leaders of Iran and Uzbekistan and Jharkhand's art to Russian President Vladimir Putin during the recent BRICS Summit, according to officials.

PM Modi gifted a Mother of Pearl (MOP) sea-shell vase to Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian.

The officials noted that the vase, sourced from the coastal artisans of Maharashtra, stands as a testament to the state's skilled craftsmanship and natural beauty.
