Summary:
"We have not received a single order for Dhanteras this year because our ornament manufacturing unit is under the debris. We will suffer 100 percent loss during Dhanteras this year," said Bharat Soni, owner of a jewellery manufacturing unit at 10/2 Syakra Para Lane. In the affected Bowbazar area, there are around 50 gold ornament manufacturing units. On Dhanteras, the main sufferers will be the workers of the gold manufacturing units. "The sale of gold will be 30 percent down in Bowbazar area during Dhanteras this year," he added..
