Himachal to revive Kangra tea industry

Shimla, April 8 (IANS) Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh on Friday favoured adopting a multi-pronged project to revive the British-era Kangra tea industry. Presiding over the state tea development board meeting here, he said there was a need to expand the tea cultivation area as it was shrinking drastically. "Its cultivation will no more be profitable if the tea gardens are rejuvenated with the new plantation." The chief minister was apprised at the meeting that a lot of tea gardens were abandoned due to lack of adequate manpower.
