Linen fibre imports to be cut, exports to begin: Textiles Minister Giriraj Singh

India linen fibre exports
Textiles Minister Giriraj Singh on Tuesday said that India will reduce imports of linen fibre while also beginning to export it.

At the World Cotton Day event, he added that India’s demand for blended fibre is rising, but cotton will never die. Highlighting the future potential of natural fibres such as milkweed, ramie, and flax, he said India’s farmers have the strength and wisdom to lead the world in sustainable fibre production.

Singh called upon the cotton industry and stakeholders to work more closely with farmers to improve seed quality and increase cotton productivity.
