Why blame the garment industry for being unorganized, inefficient, unproductive and non compliant when it is one such industry that has to work with so many variables, some of which are low volumes, multi designs, ever reducing prices, fluctuating currencies, Government apathy and poor infrastructure support. But despite that, it has always been able to deliver on time while maintaining a reasonable quality. May be, at times, the goods get air freighted rather then shipped. Now compare it with the mess that has happened at the project Common‘Wealth’ Games… Can one expect any such big blunder by any of the garment exporters? Off time and poor quality…
I would say that Government should have placed a few garment exporters on the Commonwealth Games project planning board, and going by the reputation of managing crisis the stalwarts from the garment industry would have made sure the job gets done and delivered on time using their expert understanding of special technique called jugad, salvaging the situation and the country’s pride (some may argue that jugad is the reason for India’s downfall).
