Rubber Board committee meets to discuss rubber price

摘要

The Executive Committee of the Rubber Board had Its meeting at the Rubber Board head office to discuss issues related to rubber price. The committee members who attended the meeting demanded that rubber import be banned and, if that was not possible, imports against advance license (duty free import) be suspended temporarily. Another suggestion raised in the meeting was to raise the import duty to 25 per cent without imposing any cap on the maximum limit. The members also urged the Central and State governments to implement a scheme for joint procurement of rubber.
