Tirupur: South Indian Banyan Manufacturers Association (SAIMA) President Iswaran sent a letter to Union Textiles Minister Piyush Goyal: Due to the spread of Corona virus and huge increase in wool prices in the last two years, the domestic and export knitwear manufacturing, handloom and powerloom industries have been severely affected. The season begins. Cotton production is predicted to decline this year. Although the production of cotton may increase, it will be enough for the domestic demand. Therefore, the central government should immediately ban the export of cotton. A country earns more foreign exchange by manufacturing and exporting garments than by exporting cotton as a raw material; The garment manufacturing industry and the livelihood of lakhs of workers in this industry will be protected, he said.
