India: Tanneries open but small vendors rue limitations

 tanneries in Kanpur

KANPUR: Although the leather industry was given permission to start production on zero pollution principle yet the small traders linked with the business are finding it quite difficult to deliver various ready-made items needed to complete the finished goods.

Lamenting over the lockdown staying for the past two months, one trader said that the tanneries had been opened but we were not able to carry on our supply. One or other drawbacks hinder our movement amid the continuing lockdown.

He further added how could we then celebrate the festival of Eid. 

In the presence of hurdles coming in the way of resuming work, we find our position very pitiable, rued the young supplier.
