India — 시위: 평화적 시위

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On April 3, 2025, workers from the RCGems diamond factory in Navsari, Gujarat held a peaceful sit-in protest demanding higher wages and labor law coverage, later submitting demands through the Diamond Workers' Union to local authorities. The protest remained contained to company premises with low severity.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. If confirmed and if similar labor actions spread across Gujarat's diamond processing sector, production disruptions could affect India's position as a major diamond cutting and polishing hub, though isolated factory-level protests typically have minimal broader impact.

Watch points

• Expansion of labor actions to other diamond processing facilities in Gujarat's Surat-Navsari industrial corridor
• Government or company response to wage and labor law demands that could set precedent for the sector
