Srinagar, Sep 30, 2008: In a significant move the Government of India has patented the traditional Kashmiri Pashmina shawl to prevent its imitation that has been causing heavy losses to the weavers in the valley. Now the genuine Kashmiri Pashmina shawl would have its own logo making it distinct from the imitated ones.
