"Ghicha Tussar", which is a type of Tussar silk that is obtained from the cocoons of the Tussar silk moth after the moth has emerged from the cocoon.

Unlike other types of silk that are obtained by killing the silk moth larvae inside the cocoon, Ghicha Tussar is produced without harming the silk moth. The cocoons are collected after the moth has naturally emerged, and the silk fibers are then spun into yarns and woven into fabrics.

Ghicha Tussar silk is known for its natural texture and irregularities, which give it a unique and rustic appearance. It is often used to make sarees, as well as other traditional Indian garments and textiles. Ghicha Tussar sarees are particularly popular in eastern India, especially in the states of Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal.
