Labour shortage and scarcity of containers at ports hit India’s rice exports

“Trucks are standing at the Kandla and Mundra ports for a minimum seven days as there is no labour to unload the trucks,” said Gautam Miglani, owner of LRNK, a Haryana-based basmati rice exporter. “Also, since imports of all products have lessened, containers are not coming to the ports. This is creating a lot of problems for basmati rice exporters. Exports are getting delayed.”
