A delegation from Madurai District Tiny and Small Scale Industries Association (Maditssia), led by its president Mr N Somasundaram and accompanied by Mr NSV Chittan member of parliament, met the Mr GK Vasan union minister for shipping recently and presented a pre budget memorandum for 2011.
The memorandum, among other things, sought an early start of the shipping service between Tuticorin and Colombo, pointing out that the move would help minimize the transportation cost of the procurement of raw materials, which the micro and small industries in the region have been procuring from Gujarat through rail and road.
