23. Conclusion:
From the above study, it is clear that the reason of shortfall of product is only due to shortage of Textile Technologists/Engineers. We have seen that there is about 40% shortage of Textile Technologists/Engineers at different levels. It is possible to achieve 100% target production and also quality by recruiting Textile Technologists/Engineers. So it is essential to appoint Textile Technologists/Engineers at different levels in all the textile mills within short time to face the challenge of 21st century.
