development concerning the textile industry is the constitution of an Expert Committee under the Chairmanship of Shri Ajay Shankar, Member- Secretary National Manufacturing Competitiveness Council, to formulate National Textile Policy All said and done, the Textile Industry which employs 10.5 crore people directly or indirectly and earns foreign exchange to the tune of US $ 30- 35 billion (which is expected to cross US $ 50- 55 billion shortly) is extremely crucial to the national economy It is gratifying that Government is giving due recognition to this industry After all, from time immemorial India has been the home of cotton Charka played an important role in the national struggle for independence India should be proud of its textiles, because it is the epitome of her culture, heritage and tradition The National Textile Policy is expected to unfold the roadmap for growth and development of the industry Cloth is the basic necessity of human beings and hence the industry is excepted to meet clothing requirements at affordable prices in adequate quantities But mere principles lead us nowhere, and hence the following development matrix: To adopt the best of technology for the manufacture of textile and garments for product development, so that the country wins the international race in and emerges at the top To increase production of cotton and man- made fibres in tune with the increased demand, whether domestic or export The earnings of the marginal farmers is always a matter of concern To continue TUFS on a long- term basis To adopt pragmatic labour policy in tune with the demands of the present time To encourage applied research in textiles in a big way so that the industry can be self- sufficient in technology, product development and forecasting To organize in the country the manufacture of weaving, processing and garmenting machinery of the current generation by encouraging joint collaborations with reputed machinery manufacturers or otherwise To encourage Branding To get foreign fashion experts to strengthen fashion technology, in the country To organize fashion shows on international scale However proper formulation of the policy is only the starting point What is required is its proper implementation In 2010 or thereabout, the Ministry of Textiles formulated National Fibre Policy which continues to stay under wraps The Textile Value Chain requested some experts, who are not directly in the business of manufacture of textiles and garments to give their views on what needs to be done to ensure towering success for the industry We are glad to present their views to our readers ADVT OCT- DEC 2013 ISSUE & 10 30 61 Government News Journey from Textile/ Clothing to Fashion / Lifestyle Interview : Mr Rajesh Gawade + Mr Abhijeet Bham

Mr Elongavan noted that the shows enabled them to learn a lot about the new developments in the industry For example, he said, they found a lot of new varieties of warp-knitted fabrics besides micro

2013 6th Global Skill Summit (GSS) was organized by FICCI in association with the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Ministry of Labour & Employment and National Skills Development Corporation Ernst & Young Is the knowledge partner and New Zealand Is the partner country on 4th to 6th September, 2013 at Federation House, New Delhi Objective of summit is to improve Skill development in every sector As getting right skill is major challenges we face in India Three days summit was highly informative and successful with many JV's with International Education systems this is the right time to focus on skills development to minimize wastage and improve productivity I urge the industry to whole heartedly support the Sector Skill Councils to become more effective Through the Sector Skill Councils, India Inc needs to reach out to the aspiring unemployed.” She also emphasized the need for leadership in the sector Private players and NGOs must stress on developing skills of their employees Without leaders, who can drive this mission, it will be very challenging for India to maintain its leadership position in the world, she added The FICCI Chief said that for facilitating the skilling process and for industry to participate whole heartedly, conducive policies are required "We need to create a pull factor both for the youth and industry participate Recently, some of the notications received on the issues of removing private training partners afliated to NSDC from the negative list of service tax and the industry getting left out of the provisions of section 35 CCD need to be reviewed The enthusiasm now being shown by industry to take the lead should not be dampened," Ms Kidwai cautioned the following recommendations that can be taken up: Inaugurating the Summit, Dr Pallam Raju, Union Minister for HR Development called for concentrated efforts to create an ecosystem that assigns dignity to vocational education “This will go a long way in addressing the current aspiration mismatch where everyone aspires for a qualication, but qualications alone don't lead to jobs,” he said and added that a massive campaign is required to ensure that youth in India take up vocational education and technical training as a serious career choice and not as a chance At a local level, the industry could enforce it by ensuring that their ancillary services like drivers, housekeeping and security are certied skilled, besides ensuring that the people at the shop oor are certied skilled · Enhanced industry participation to increase quality and relevance · Setting quality standards, · Designing course and curriculum and delivery methodology · Assisting in capacity expansion · Making skills development a part of the CSR initiatives · Helping in mobilizing funding · Incentivizing industry players to design their own programs and delivery methods · National skills qualication framework needs to be formulated and adopted as soon as possible to enable seamless migration between vocational education channel and formal education channel · Employment-linked skill development initiatives need to be conceptualised and initiated for achieving targeted outcomes in a time-bound manner · Private sector development · Encouraging private participation in all aspects of economic and social activities and having a favourable regime for attracting investments · Incentivizing MSME sector growth and formalization by increasing access to capital and reducing the costs of formality · Integrated delivery platform/decentralized program management · Incentivizing women to take up vocational education Mr RCM Reddy, Chairman FICCI Skills Development Forum, MD and CEO IL&FS Skills and Education, said that when it comes to skill development policy initiatives, availability of jobs, supply side management and demand side issues were some of the major challenges ahead for India The Minister said the skilling challenge is further magnied by the fact that 70% of this population falls in rural and tribal India The numbers are huge and solving the same is almost impossible unless there is integration of skill development and the formal education system It demands a collective effort by varied government initiatives, PPP initiatives to set up schools and training institutes (Public Private Partnership), National Skills Qualication Framework and large and small private players The scale and speed at which action must be taken in this regard makes this one of the great opportunities for private players The need of the hour is to synergize the efforts and resources to provide a feasible platform for vocational education and skill development The ideal way forward will be to seek partnerships that will strengthen the process of quality and inclusive education, he pointed out Dr Raju said, “We are working towards achieving national goal of skilling 500 million Indian by 2022 While doing so, we have a larger challenge at hand and that is to excite and engage the youth of the country to participate without inhibitions.” A larger effort is needed to percolate the same feeling in the community, since in our case the unorganized sector offers more employment than the organized sector Mr Agrawal agged some issues that needed immediate attention of the stakeholders such as decreasing employability in the organized sector, increase in the percentage of educated unemployed, only some states have taken initiatives to skill the workforce and set up training and vocational centers, low presence of vocational training institute infrastructure, lack of quality assessors, high attrition, too many certications and mismatch between the demand of economy and aspiration of youth Ms Naina Lal Kidwai, President, FICCI, in her address said, “In view of the difcult economic situation that we are in, I believe TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 70 POST EVENT REPORT TAG 2013 also take initiatives on their own

codes He also suggested that the latest industry standards should be put in place for technical textile items in order to instil condence in consumers’ purchase Photograph (L-R): Amit Gugnani,Senior

SPINNERS DECREASE YARN PRICES As the country's biggest man-made fabric(MMF) industry is passing from a tough phase due to recession, the yarn manufacturers have been forced to decrease the prices of polyester filament yarn (PFY) per kilogram The phenomenal hike in the yarn prices have already increased the production cost for the weaving community in the city The MMF hub in the city weaves around crore meter of grey fabric per day and that the total turnover of the finished fabrics is pegged at Rs 100 crore per day Industry sources said that the spinners or yarn manufacturers on Tuesday reduced the yarn prices at Rs per kilogram as the weavers have been staying away from purchasing yarn following the market recession Ashok Patel, a weaver in Pandesara said, "The spinners have actually derived benefit of the weakening rupee against dollar by increasing the yarn prices The market sentiments are very weak ahead of the Diwali festival and thus we are in no mood to purchase new yarn stock." In the past couple of months after the weakening of rupee against dollar, the spinners had increased the yarn prices by almost Rs 25 78 ADVT advt ISSUE -3 OCTOBER-DECEMBER - 2013 TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN VOLUME - October- December 2013 80 REINVENTING TEXTILE INDUSTRY PEER REVIEW RESEARCH PAPER EFFECT OF NATURAL DYES ON COTTTON & SILK ISSUE -3 OCTOBER-DECEMBER - 2013 TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN VOLUME - October- December 2013 80 REINVENTING TEXTILE INDUSTRY PEER REVIEW RESEARCH PAPER EFFECT OF NATURAL DYES ON COTTTON & SILK [...]... each level of the value chain we have in excess of 30% surplus capacity after meeting the domestic needs Each member of the value chain therefore looks at the world at this market & aspires to have all the advantages that the next TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 27 COVER STORY OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY THE INDIAN TEXTILE ENGINEERING INDUSTRY The global market for textile machinery was... technical textiles and corporate nance 29 TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 AGM COVER CORNER STORY JOURNEY FROM TEXTILE & CLOTHING (T&C) TO FASHION & LIFESTYLE (F&L) : FASHIONING A NEW ECO-SYSTEM the spinning industry and has been woefully missed out by apparel industry and also not sufciently used by the textile weaving industry Completely absent from the scene was the processing part of the chain. .. unions endorse overtime for the workers The Ministry for Textiles needs to work with the Labour ministry to resolve this issue The issue of time exibility also needs to be addressed Whatever the reason, a solution has to be found out Solution to the Problem One solution is to start in rural areas If Mohammed cannot go to TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 22 ADVT ADVT Consultants have limited knowledge... called upon the Textiles Committee, to devise appropriate strategy to motivate the researchers working in this area through appropriate means and submit to the Ministry for TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 10 appropriate action Among the other dignitaries, Smt Panabaaaka Lakshmi, Hon’ble Minister for States of Textiles, and Petroleum and Natural Gas, Ms Zohra Chatterji, Secretary(Textiles), Shri... capacity in the U.K., had declined to a mere 1.7 million spindles Fast forward into 2010, China and India had 115 million and 44 million of the world's installed capacity of 240 million spindles During this period, the textile machinery TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 28 initiatives “committed to eliminate all releases of hazardous chemicals from the entire global supply chain by 2020” Leading chemical... device & in turn lowers the TR load on AC It helps in recovering the energy TEXTILE VALUE CHAIN | Oct -Dec 2013 16 Advt ADVT COVER STORY “Reinventing Textile industry present to you bouquets of articles from different field, areas of expertise people about New Textile the measures required to harness the full potential of the textile industry, which has so far remained tied in knots because of various...
