India's decision to unlawfully block cotton export orders criticised by International Textile Manufacturers Federation Bashir Ali Mohammed, President has criticised the government of India's decision to block cotton export orders, thus adversely affecting the global textile industry.
In a letter addressed to Indian textile minister, he has expressed his unease over the decision by the Government of India to restrict the export of cotton since April 2010. The ITMF has therefore urged the Indian government to honour the sanctity of the contract and refrain from unpredictable and unlawful interventions in the international cotton exports from India that have already been concluded. By applying a predictable cotton policy, the Government of India can assist in providing a stable international business framework.
Bashir has pointed out that the increase in the prices of cotton was not unusual if those were market driven and within the international laws and regulations. However, restrictions that have been placed by the Government of India, in the forms of delays or bans of cotton exports for already concluded contracts are unacceptable. Bashir Ali Mohammad in his letter has also reminded that trade sanctity of the contracts were fundamental rule and therefore must be preserved at all times.-PR
