4 lakh jobs, Rs 4,000-cr per month at stake; Kanpur, Unnao count losses.

Kanpur, Unnao:
Rizwan Nadri is a self-proclaimed Narendra Modi bhakt. “I credit his government at the Centre for approving a 20 million-litres-per-day (MLD) common effluent treatment plant (CETP), which will give us a new lease of life,” states this 34-year-old owner of Nadri Tanning Industries.

His three tanneries are among the 241 in Kanpur’s Jajmau leather cluster, forced to shut down by the Yogi Adityanath-headed BJP government in Uttar Pradesh as part of its stated goal to keep the Ganga clean, especially during the Ardh Kumbh Mela season from January 15 to March 4. “We were ordered not to run from November 20, even before the Mela’s start. The Mela is over, but we’re still awaiting permission to re-start,” says Nadri, whose three tanneries can process up to 60 hides each per day for converting into finished leather.

The combined daily processing capacity of Jajmau’s tanneries is around 18,000 hides, while ranging from five to 750 for individual units. They engage over one lakh persons, in addition to the 3 lakh or so employed in downstream value-added industries such as car and domestic leather upholstery, safety and fashion shoes, sandals and slippers, saddlery goods, belts and bags.

Nadri, however, does not blame Modi for the industry’s travails. “The Rs 617-crore CETP for Jajmau, approved in August 2018 and to be funded under the Centre’s Namami Gange (National Mission for Clean Ganga) programme, will address all concerns relating to discharge of wastewater from our tanneries into the Ganga,” he adds.
