The north Bengal chapter of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) will organise the ninth edition of the Tea Forum in Siliguri this month. The initiative aims to create a roadmap for revitalising the tea industry in north Bengal and market the beverage to younger generations. ADVERTISEMENTThe two-day event — being held on January 17 and 18 at a tea resort on the outskirts of the city — is expected to bring together key stakeholders of the tea sector. “Despite these measures to improve workers’ welfare and promote tea tourism, the industry needs to make sustained efforts to ensure long-term viability. The two-day Tea Forum is being organised to provide a common platform for all stakeholders and to gather suggestions for the revival and sustainability of the industry,” he added.
