The small-scale coir factory owners in Cherthala and Ambalapuzha taluks are on the warpath demanding government intervention to revive the crisis-ridden coir sector.
The indefinite strike by small-scale manufacturers completed five days on Sunday.
Around 65 societies, encompassing 8,000-odd small-scale coir units, are producing coir doormats and mattings on handlooms in the outskirts of Alappuzha and Cherthala towns.
