Letter: textile market to observe bandh on 30 December

Letter: The textile market will observe bandh on Thursday to register to protest the increase in GST on textile items from 5% to 12%.
Bandh’s call was given by the Federation of Textile Merchant Association (Fostta) on Tuesday.
The new tax rate will take effect since January 1.
Previously, Fostta and other associations related to the textile industry had held a series of meetings and made representations to the central government and elected representatives.
In the absence of any guarantee to reduce the GST level, protests are being launched on a larger scale.
Recently, groups of textile traders held protests by tizing the black rope in hand and writing postcards.
About 70,000 textile traders in 175 textile markets will join the strike.
Massive protests were carried out in the city textile market in 2017 after 5% GST was enforced.
For the first time, GST is charged on textile products.
