thumb|A blue khadi kurta.
Khadi (, ), derived from khaddar, is a hand-spun and woven natural fibre cloth promoted by Mahatma Gandhi as swadeshi (of homeland) for the freedom struggle of India and the term is used throughout the Indian subcontinent. The first piece of the hand-woven cloth was made in the Sabarmati Ashram of Gandhi during 1917–18. The coarseness of the cloth led Gandhi to call it khadi.

Swaraj
Swarāj (IAST: , ) can mean, generally self-governance or "self-rule". The term was used, in its modern political sense, as early as 1852. A mention of swaraj appears in the Anglo-Marathi journal or the periodical Dnyanodaya, in the issue that was published on 15 May, 1852 (The Dnyanodaya, Bombay, 1852, vol. xi, pp. 154–155). It was also used synonymously with "home-rule" by Mahatma Gandhi, and the word usually refers to Gandhi's concept of Indian independence from foreign domination. Swaraj lays stress on governance, not by a hierarchical government, but by self-governance through individuals
