European And American Clothing Group Warned India Not To Employ Child Labor.
GAP, WAL-MART, C&A, H&M warned India suppliers to boycott textile factories suspected of using children and contractors.
A girl employment system in Tamil Nadu, India, is threatening India's $11 billion garment export industry, and several international retailers are far away from their supply chains suspected of exploitation.
Welfare agencies often strongly accuse India of using child labour and forced labour.
The latest signs are that the west is serious about labour issues. Multinational retail businesses such as GAP, WAL-MART (Walmart), C&A, H&M, Primark, Mothercare and Tesco (Tesco) have instructed their India suppliers to stagnate purchases through the Sumangali plan.

Girls' factories produce raw materials, and the labor watchdog says, 'Sumangali' is a contract involving unfair practices and contractors.
This development trend may have serious consequences for the domestic garment industry in India, because 80% of the income of the garment industry in India comes from Europe and the United States.
In Tamil Nadu, thousands of rural and tribal girls are looking for jobs under the "Sumangali" contract in the textile industry of the state. "Sumangali" is "bride" in Tamil, and they sign a three year contract with 36000-56000 rupees.
The factory owner pays the total amount to their parents when the contract expires, which is supposed to help these girls to get married.
Tamil Nadu introduced this plan in the middle of 1990s, which is often a big problem in the labor shortage industry.

The total payment and free accommodation in the scheme are very attractive to poor families, and the labor monitoring agency claims that girls are subject to the contract period.

The function plan is attraction, which is trapped in the contract period.
This argument is supported by social consciousness and compulsory education (preservation), a non-governmental organization in the Rupp knitwear hub, 400 km from Chennai, state capital.
The girls were trapped in hotels and were not allowed to make phone calls. Their salaries could not be paid until three years later.
They only get 40-60 rupees a day, and the minimum wage in the state is 184 rupees.
They have to work for 12 hours.
In some cases, the contract was terminated illegally, and the girls returned empty handed.
But industry agencies say the plan has given girls dignity, otherwise they are illiterate and poor women.
The southern India Textile Mills Association (SIMA) said that the word "Sumangali" has been deleted, and about 120 textile factories under the association provide a "apprenticeship plan with dormitory facilities".
It was misled into a job plan.
