The New Indian Express Thiruvananthapuram
|August 31, 2025

The crisis has snowballed from factories to families, threatening not just trade but the city's social fabric.

Jayanti Savaliya, regional president of the Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC), warned that the new pricing will drive American buyers away.
