Lumpy Skin Disease: Sweets Costlier In Rajasthan As Milk Collection Falls
According to Jaipur Dairy Federation, milk collection has come down by 15-18 per cent due to Lumpy With the Lumpy skin disease (LSD) taking its toll on the cattle population in several states, milk collection in Jaipur, Rajasthan, the worst-affected state by the disease, has been badly hit, resulting in a rise in the prices of sweets manufactured in the state.According to Jaipur Dairy Federation, the biggest milk cooperative in the state, milk collection has come down by 15-18 per cent, though there
has so far been no disruption in supply to consumers. Om Poonia, the Chairman of Jaipur Dairy Federation, said daily milk collection is down to 12 lakh litres, from the usual 14 lakh litres. Before Lumpy struck, we used to get 14 lakh litres of milk daily at the cooperative, but now it’s down to 12 lakh litres. Though there has been no disruption in milk supply, we are worried over animal deaths as the figures in reality are definitely more than what is being stated officially. If this continues, there could be a crisis - worse than what we faced during Covid-19,” said Poonia.Suppliers of sweets are also feeling the pinch. At a Jodhpur sweet shop, supplier Mukesh Kumar Sharma said: “All sweets are made with mawa [dried evaporated milk solids]. With milk supply falling, our production.

at the Centre.We are trying to unite as many people (parties) as possible… If we get a chance to form the next government at the Centre, all backward states will definitely get special category status. There is no reason why it cannot be done,” Kumar told reporters after an event in Patna to launch the installation of solar street lights in the state’s 8,061 panchayats. At the event a few minutes earlier, Kumar took a swipe at the central government for not granting special status to Bihar and other backward states and accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government at the Centre of relying on propaganda.

SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Editorial
SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Labour In Informal Sector Is In Pathetic Economic Condition In India Covid was a reality all over the world in the years of 2020-2021. The epidemic was not alone,it was followed by devastation. The victim countries were dragged down from thedevelopment level they had been. India was no exception. But for other countries, theiragenda never allowed any compromise with progress and hence, they arrived soon wherethey were. India was one country that remained unconcerned about the key indicators.Result was reflected in no uncertain terms in the ranking for the United Nations’development index or HDI.As was expected, India’s ranking was quite below the mark. Decline had been there for lasttwo years (2020 and 2021), lagging behind what all had been achieved before. Earlier, thecountry had been always at par with the world average. Today India has been ranked at 132(2021), slipping from 130 in 2020, according to the Human Development Report 2021-22released on September 8, 2022. The report, released by the United Nations DevelopmentProgram (UNDP), says India’s HDI value stood at 0.633 during 2021, which was lower thanthe world average of 0.732. In 2020, too, India recorded a decline in its HDI value (0.642) incomparison to the pre-Covid level of 2019 (0.645). The lag is the crude reality today with people dying at much younger age. The factors thatlead to this gloom are all thrown into one basket making Covid responsible for all thesuffering. Till 2019, the average age in the country was 67.2 years but now, to be alive evenafter the average of 67.2 years is a boon. In education too we lag behind, registering poorschooling and the resultant damage for the young ones. In the 11.9 years of schooling in thecountry, today in reality, it is available for hardly 6.7 years.At the root of the tragedy is the unprecedented shrinking of income. The Gross NationalIncome per capita level has slipped down to 6,590 dollar, labelling India as a lower middle-income country. Jobs are like catching moon in your palm, that you would never wish to letgo, at any cost, even life. Long hours of slogging, in extremely unhealthy conditions, andthen at the end, promises drown in falsehood and you get underpaid. Still you continueputting at stake your conscience, your rights, and continue toiling at your peril.It is here that country’s progress gets locked. Any kind of welfare steps are denied to thosewho produce the wealth, on which the life of a nation is kept flowing. It is in other words,demographic dividend. The report has come out pointing at the pitfalls in the handling of theemployment scenario and the resultant suffering of our working class. It is the failure of thesystem that forces people from the lower depths to shoulder the responsibility ofdevelopment and progress, and yet they are themselves kept with bottom level affordability. According to the report, a reduction has been registered in their Human Development Indexvalue in 2020-2021, reversing much of the progress. It is the Sustainable DevelopmentGoals that are facing the brunt. In the grim scenario, it is the MSME that has kept offering respite to the common masses.Compared to other sectors, availability of employment is greater here, whatever be thewages and the timings. But the skeletons started rolling out when emergency credit lineguarantee scheme was introduced. The credit to MSMEs was for a maximum of 20 per centof their outstanding debt. As per data, when the loans have been disbursed under thisscheme to one crore accounts, 16.4 per cent of these accounts have turned non-performingdue to financial stress the borrowers were going through. It was clear that Covid was not theonly factor to keep economy suffering. It continued even after Covid days were over.The data from the National Credit Guarantee Trustee Company reveals that 16.22 lakh loanshave turned bad. In value terms, this works out to Rs 11,893 crore. This implies that it wasthe relatively smaller firms that have been under stress and have not been able to meet theirobligations. The fact that in the first tranche itself of the scheme, most of the loans turnedbad was a signal that it was only a tip of an iceberg, more tragedies were yet to roll out. MSMEs, both formal and informal, give jobs to the major section of labour force, and it ismostly this section that is victim of continuing financial stress. - Kapilkumar M.

No Stigma In The Word “Anaath” (Orphan), No Need To Change: High Court
India Plans To Stop Financial Aid To Sri Lanka After IMF Bailout: Report
The plea said children who have lost their parents already face a vulnerable situation and the word ‘anaath’ reflects as a needy, helpless and deprived child Agency News: Mumbai There is no social stigma attached to the word ‘anaath’, or orphan, and there is no need to change it at all, the Bombay High Court said on Thursday while dismissing a public interest
litigation (PIL).A division bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Madhav Jamdar was hearing the plea filed by a nonprofit, Swanath Foundation, seeking for the word ‘anaath’ to be changed to ‘swanath’.The plea said children who have
lost their parents already face a vulnerable situation and the word ‘anaath’ reflects as a needy, helpless and deprived child. The word ‘swanath’ would mean a self-reliant and confident child. The court, however, said this was not a case where the court ought
to intervene.“Sometimes we, too, have to draw a Lakshman Rekha and not intervene in every matter,” Chief Justice Datta said. The word anaath is in use since ages. We do not agree with the petitioner that the word.

Hemant Soren, the Chief Minister of Jharkhand, today met Governor Ramesh Bais at the Raj Bhavan in Ranchi. According to the Chief Minister, the meeting was in view of the current political uncertainty prevailing in the state and alleged attempts by the BJP to create confusion. Mr Soren tweeted: “Meeting Hon’ble Rajpal Shri Ramesh Bais ji at Raj Bhavan today, handed over a letter to remove the uncertainty of unexpected and unfortunate circumstances arising in the state for more than three weeks ... the unethical efforts being made by BJP in this state of confusion.” Earlier
this month, Mr Soren won the majority test in Jharkhand assembly with 48 votes in his favour. The ruling coalition has 49 MLAs in the 81-member assembly, in which the majority mark is 41. Mr Soren’s majority test was conducted amid a threat of his disqualification from the assembly over allegations of corruption. He had alleged that the BJP had been trying to topple his government by engineering defections.The BJP says Hemant Soren must be disqualified as an MLA over allegations that he violated election norms by giving himself a mining lease. The party has called for fresh elections and has demanded that the Chief Minister resign.
India does not plan to provide fresh financial support to Sri Lanka on top of the nearly $4 billion it has extended this year, two sources told Reuters, as the island’s battered economy starts to stabilise after a preliminary loan agreement with the IMF. India has been the biggest provider of aid this year to its southern neighbour, which is fighting its worst economic crisis in more than seven decades and struggling to pay for imports,
alleged hawala transactions with a Kolkata-based firm in 2015-16. Mr Jain’s arrest, and CBI raids on Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia over the liquor policy, have triggered a bitter
fight between the AAP and the BJP. The party claims the ruling BJP is harassing its ministers and hindering the development work of the Delhi government as it is intimidated by public support.

the party’s massive victory in Punjab earlier this year. Mr Chadha has worked in important positions both in Delhi and Punjab. The party also sees him as a very popular face among the young generation.Gujarat, where elections are due later this year, is the next big target of AAP, which already rules in Delhi and Punjab.

Agency News:Mumbai When he was at the peak of his career in TV, actor Manav Gohil left it for a “big film project”, which was never made. The sabbatical led to Gohil going through a “bad patch” in life. “Every actor would, in a sustained period, go through a patch like that. It lasted for four years in my case,” the actor shares Talking about the nowshelved movie, the 47-year-old adds, “They (the makers) were fed up with the stardom of stars. They made a beautiful film, but when they went to sell it, they were stuck due to a financial situation for a long time. At that time, I didn’t do TV much. When I stepped back to TV, I did not get the kind of work
that I used to get before. TV was not waiting for me; people had moved on. They found new actors who worked for very little money, and the scripts would make them stars. There was a patch where a lot of ‘one-show stars’ came. It was bad for people like me. I didn’t get any work for four years.” Barring a few cameos here and there, Gohil, who shot to fame with Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii, admits he didn’t get much work from 2008 to 2012. “I auditioned for a lot of projects, but they didn’t work out, because neither did I look like a father, nor a 20-year-old. So they didn’t know what to do with me. I was rejected a lot of times and I rejected a lot of roles,” he states. Gohil says he had his family by his side.

Godrej Körber automates India’s Cold Chain storage sector; introduces advanced AS/RS technologies Godrej Körber, a joint venture company between Godrej & Boyce and Körber Supply Chain, a German company, is driving warehouse automation transformation for the Indian Cold Chain sector in India through differentiated automation solutions. Godrej Körber is steering for 20% contribution in revenue from India’s cold chain sector by introducing highly advanced high density AS/RS systems in FY23.Cold storage sector encounter challenges that other ‘dry’ warehouses do not face. The higher cost of operations in the cold storages make it critically important that the space must be utilized in the best optimal manner. In India, the dairy or cold chain industry has not evolved in terms of intralogistics automation as companies ignore the benefits of modern cold storage design which also includes a high density storage system apart from advanced refrigeration technology. Aside from needing to pay the labour working in cold storage more than in a dry
environment, there are also major concerns such as attrition and difficulty recruiting individuals to work in freezing warehouses. Automation technologies such as ASRS systems, Conveyors, and Layer Picker solutions can guarantee faster delivery, allowing for less footprint and maximised space utilisation in the facilities. Godrej Körber is expecting 18% - 20% growth in the next 5 years as it has witnessed a major shift happening towards the adoption of automation in the supply chain after the pandemic and expects this trend.
