1500 families affected as English Indian Clays faces shortage

Thiruvananthapuram, Aug 14 (UNI) The future of 1,500 families has become uncertain as English Indian Clays Limited (EICL) faces difficulties in its operations, owing to the unavailability of clay, and non-clearances.
"For the last two years, we have been facing the shortage of clay, and that resulted in the sudden closure of our production units," Mahesh S, Deputy General Manager, Operations, English Indian Clays, said in a press release here on Friday.
Though applications were submitted to different departments concerned for permission for mining on July 15, 2019, no action has been taken so far. The EICL informed that under these circumstances the company cannot move forward and is being forced to close operations indefinitely, he added.
