The Centre has promised Kerala that it will peg import duty on rubber at 20 per cent in view of the states’ concern over crash in prices of the domestic produce, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said on Wednesday. Chandy, who was in New Delhi yesterday to take up Kerala’s pressing issues, said the Union Commerce Ministry had already forwarded this proposal to Finance Ministry for clearance.
Chandy and his colleagues were in Delhi in the last two days to take up a host of issues ranging the neglect of Kerala’s demands in the Railway Budget, to additional allocation of electricity from the central pool to tide over serious power crisis in the state.
