भारतले चिया निर्यातमा अवरोध सिर्जना गरेपछि इलाम र झापाका दर्जनौँ चिया उद्योगहरू असार १ गतेदेखि बन्द भएका छन्। भारतीय पक्षले नयाँ गुणस्तर मापदण्ड र 'स्ट्यान्डर्ड अपरेटिङ प्रोसिजर' को बहानामा विगत डेढ महिनादेखि नेपाली चिया निर्यातमा रोक लगाएको छ। चिया उत्पादनको मुख्य सिजनमै उद्योगहरू बन्द भएपछि हजारौँ किसानहरू चिन्तित बनेका छन् भने यसबारे संसदमा समेत आवाज उठाइएको छ।
भारतले चिया निर्यातमा अवरोध गरेपछि इलाम र झापाका ८६ वटा चिया कारखानाहरूले सोमबारदेखि उत्पादन बन्द गर्ने घोषणा गरेका छन्। भारतीय चिया बोर्डले गुणस्तर परीक्षणको बहानामा कडा मापदण्ड लागू गरेपछि विगत डेढ महिनादेखि निर्यात ठप्प भएको व्यवसायीहरूको भनाइ छ। सूर्योदय अर्थोडक्स चिया उत्पादक संघ नेपालका अनुसार यस अवरोधले हजारौँ चिया किसानहरूको जीविकोपार्जनमा गम्भीर संकट निम्त्याएको छ।
