Says Asha Chaudhary of her father, "From the beginning, he has led with a vision of dignity, respect, and empowerment, preserving the incredible art of rug-making while transforming lives. Our unique business model—focused on artisans, quality, design, and sustainability—embodies these ideals and continues to stand out in the industry.

"Every day, I admire his unwavering commitment to making the world a better place," she said.

According to a Thinkers50 statement, "Nand Kishore (NK) Chaudhary is often referred to as the ‘Gandhi of the Carpet Industry’ for his transformative approach to business and social impact," Thinkers50 stated. "A strong advocate for social empowerment, NK has built Jaipur Rugs around the concept of ‘doorstep entrepreneurship,’ removing middlemen to allow artisans to receive fair wages and work from their homes. This model has not only preserved the dignity of the artisans but also provided economic stability within rural communities."
