Garment Manufacturers Association protests in Tirupur demanding control of yarn price hike!

Indigenous garment manufacturers' unions staged a protest against the Tirupur Corporation, demanding an end to the rise in yarn prices.


Tiruppur: The price of yarn has risen by 40 rupees to 470 rupees this month amid rising prices over the past few months.

In this context, the central government should take immediate action to curb the rise in yarn prices, as there is a risk of an unprecedented rise in yarn prices next month, and a complete ban on the export of cotton and yarn for use in domestic production, and the abolition of the yarn import tax. Tirupur Domestic Manufacturers Association today staged a protest in front of the Tirupur Corporation office.

The demonstration was attended by more than 500 industry organizations and workers chanting slogans in support of the demand.
