âDifficult to surviveâ: How are Delhiâs industries coping with Covid and the lockdown?
Factories in the national capital are still recovering from the losses of last yearâs lockdown. The second wave of Covid has brought them to their knees.
10 Jun, 2021
âIn Okhla, there are over 5,000 industries of which around 50 percent shut down last year,â said Ahmed Aziz, general secretary of the Okhla Industries Association. âOf that 50 percent, half have migrated from Delhi due to losses and the rest are out of business.â
Factories in the national capital are staring at a bleak future, even as Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal announced that factories and the construction sector could resume operations from May 31. The factories, which have been shut for nearly six weeks, are struggling with a shortage of labour and raw materials, and low demand.
