Employing an intersectional lens, the paper examines how bodies of female labourers in the region are imbued in a complex set of relations shaped by the agrarian crisis, migration patterns and labour relations. The paper also highlights the structural interventions undertaken by the Maharashtra State Government to address the situation and puts forward suggestions for effective policy implementation. | INTRODUCTION - AGRARIAN DISTRESS AND SEASONAL MIGRATION IN BEED Beed, an administrative district in the Aurangabad division of Maharashtra, lies in the Marathwada region bordering Karnataka and Telangana. On October 31, 2018, the government of Maharashtra declared Beed as one of the most severe drought-hit districts in the country based on indicators such as rainfall deficit, low soil quality and decline in groundwater index (Kurtkoti and Paraste 2019).

  • Infrastructure - Construction MSRDC – Setting a Precedent for Infrastructure Construction in the Country
    EVENT UPDATE Infrastructure - Construction MSRDC – Setting a precedent for infrastructure construction in the country Summary We had recently organized a meeting of investors with Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) senior officials on “Discussion on Mega Infrastructure Projects in Maharashtra”. We discussed four key projects that MSRDC is executing and came out with positive vibes on the innovative, time bound and result oriented approach of the corporation in executing these projects. What impressed us most is that despite the humongous scope of the projects, myriad obstacles and political intervention, these projects are likely to set a precedent in the history of infrastructure building in the country on how to plan and execute a mega infrastructure project. The cumulative cost of these projects is Rs750bn to be executed over the next 3 to 5 years. In this report we look at the details of these projects and EPC opportunity therein. Introduction of MSRDC: MSRDC is a Maharashtra state owned entity responsible for planning, designing, constructing and managing road projects, flyovers, bridges, light rail transit, sea links and water transport in the state of Maharashtra. At present Mr. Eknath Shinde is the Chairman of the corporation and Mr R. L. Mopalwar (IAS) is Vice Chairman and Managing Director. Current projects under MSRDCL are Mumbai Nagpur Samruddhi Mahamarg, Versova-Bandra Sea Link Project, Mumbai-Pune Expressway- Missing Link, Thane Creek Bridge-3 etc. Mumbai Nagpur Expressway-big on scope, big on execution: This project was the main point of discussion with the investors as it one of the largest greenfield expressway in the country spanning 700 kms with EPC cost of Rs554bn.

  • Title: Need to Develop Kalyan-Thane-Mumbai Waterway
    an> Title: Need to develop Kalyan-Thane-Mumbai Waterway. DR. SHRIKANT EKNATH SHINDE (KALYAN): Maharashtra has been bestowed with a huge ocean front right from Mumbai onwards. However, apart from waterways such as Mumbai-Alibag and Mumbai-Goa, waterways have not been considered as a viable alternative for regular commutation. As an alternative mode of transport Kalyanj-Thane-Mumbai waterway has an untapped potential to decongest the existing load on transportation. We know that the railways that serve the commuters are overloaded on this section and there is a limited scope for expansion of the same. Thus, it is time that we consider Kalyan-Thane-Mumai waterway as a suitable answer to the congestion on roads and railways. A minimum of four lack commuters travel from Kalyan to Mumbai everyday. Mumbai has huge jetties which can handle the waterway traffic. Maritime Board has conducted a survey for establishment of Jetties at Talavali, Gothivali, Vashi and Koparkhairane. Navi Mumbai has already some Jetties and some are in pipeline. Kalyan could be developed as a commuter hub for waterway considering the vast coastline connecting Kalyan-Thane-Mumbai and Navi Mumbai. The rural areas connected with Kalyan will be hugely benefited due to waterways as their produce can reach faster to Mumbai markets. The load on railways and roads will be reduced so that they can be maintained in better shape. Sir, through you, I would like to request the Government to look into the matter. We should initiate a further Feasibility Survey for implementation of this waterway. This waterway is going to pave the way for a meaningful gift to be given to lakhs of commuters from my constituency as also from other areas.
