The ongoing farmers' protest has adversely affected the hosiery industry of Ludhiana.
Border blockade has led to minimalistic transportation of goods across states.
After suffering losses for last 9 months due to corona induced lockdown, industry was expecting a boost in the deteriorating business.
But the farmers' agitation has dampened their mood again.
The already low profits of the industry, due to the COVID-19 lockdown, have now failed to take off in wake of the border blockade.
Retail counters have also reduced their orders by 70-80%.
While speaking to ANI, Pinnacle Fashion And Retail's co-founder, Akhil Sachdeva said, "The normal projection is that people are considering 50-60-% lesser business as compared to last year.
But if the farmers' protest ends soon so that supplies can reach their destination as winter season is short, we get hardly 1-2 months for selling."
