Charkhā (English spelling)
|
It means a spinning wheel in Hindi. During the Indian independence movement, M. Gandhi used one to preach the rejection of foreign-made cloth and foreign-style clothing, and the dedication to hand spinning and hand weaving. This was a rediscovery of something Indian, and appealed to the national consciousness of the people. It has become the banner of the Indian National Congress.

ヒンディー語で手紡ぎ車のこと。インド独立運動に際して，M.ガンジーがこれを手にして，外国製の布，外国風の衣服を排斥し，手紡ぎ，手織りにいそしむように説いた。これはインド的なものの再発見であり，民衆のなかの民族意識に訴えるものであった。なおこれは，インド国民会議派の旗印になっている。
