Technotex 2015- Event report
► Mr Sushil Kapoor, who is a manufacturer of flame retardant products, wanted toknow how the safety standards will be implemented. He felt that just havinglaws and standards is not sufficient, it is their implementation that is moreimportant. Other panellists agreed, saying that in the absence of a strong lawpeople will not spend even a little more for safety. Hence ventures will not beprofitable. Ms Shashi Singh also called for proper rules regarding what workerswear in factories. She requested the government to pass the pendingamendment regarding that law soon. Indian manufacturers are forced to exporttheir products because currently there is no domestic market. She also felt thatthese safety products fulfil a social need, and so should be included in acompany’s CSR activities.
► A panellist felt that the policy regarding technical textiles should be keptseparate from that of textiles. While the textile sector is a very large industry,the technical textile industry is still an upcoming one. Hence it is important forthe government to help it get its own identity.

► Another panellist felt that geotextile manufacturers are not getting a properplatform to project themselves. Hence they are forced to become exportoriented. A manufacturer of agro textiles felt that currently the demand is notenough to justify large investment. This is where the government can help inproviding clarity and guidance to improve demand. Larger demand willencourage investment and bring in better quality. Another point made was thatthe fibre is priced at a higher market in India than in the international market.Hence the upstream fibre manufacturing sector is competitive, but thedownstream sector has the problem of conversion. Today, converted productsfrom China are imported at low prices in India. Hence manufacturers have aproblem in this regard.
► Mr Sanjay Kumar Panda, Secretary, Ministry of Textiles, Government ofIndia, assured the forum that the government is seized of these issues. In afederal structure, the states also have a good share of funds to make thingshappen. The government will see how the textile policy can be tweaked fortechnical textiles; an on going exercise will be initiated in this regard.

• Responding to some of the constraints cited by the panellists, Mr Sanjay Kumar Panda said, “we are a democracy, we cannot just run the country by making rules. They need implementation. That varies from state to state. The most important thing is to make the industry acceptable to the people.” The minister also reiterated his full cooperation before the session drew to a close.
