T.N. ranks first in export of textiles, readymade garments and leather goods: DMK

The DMK on Sunday said that while Prime Minister Narendra Modi was predicting that it would disappear after the Lok Sabha election, organisations under the control of the Union government had ranked Tamil Nadu first in the export of textiles, readymade garments and leather goods.

According to the National Import-Export Record for Yearly Analysis of Trade (NIRYAT), the DMK said, Tamil Nadu accounted for 22.58% of the textiles exported from the country.

“The report has made it clear that Tamil Nadu tops the list when it comes to export of textiles,” the DMK said. Tamil Nadu’s share was $7.990 billion while Gujarat’s share was $4.738 billion.
