Cheap imports, higher taxes hit India's textile industry
Description
India's economy is slowing down. It has particularly affected the textile industry - and led to hundreds of workers losing their jobs.
Many of them say cheap imports, a reduced export market and higher taxes are to blame for the decline.
They are suggesting the Indian government formulate an economic stimulus package to kick start financial and industrial growth.
