  • Forestry Interventions to Be Seen by July 2018
    Forestry Interventions to Be Seen By July 2018 Effects of forestry interventions for the Clean Ganga Mission should start becoming visible by July 2018. Cleaning and conserving the Ganga has to be seen also from the economic point of view and not just from the religious point of view as crores of people depend on this river for their livelihood.The funds allocated for this task must be use efficiently and not spent for the sake of spending, said the Union Minister for Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation, Uma Bharti. She was speaking at the inauguration of a two-day national level stakeholders’ meet on preparation of the DPR on forestry interventions for the Ganga at the Forest Research Institute. Bharti said she was never against construction of power projects on rivers but stressed that dam designs should not alter the flow or character of the river. She said, “We have to ensure that Rs20,000 crore allocated for this mission to be spent across four years is used effectively and not spent just for the sake of spending it. Uttarakhand has immense scope for creating a new development model. I want to see Uttarakhand develop as a hub of medicinal herbs so that medicines made in Uttarakhand from these herbs replace the Chinese medicines in the international market.” “Apart from ensuring efficient use of funds and timely action for Ganga, we also have to ensure convergence of the intentions of those in Delhi with the position of those in the States to prevent a situation as created by declaration of the Bhagirathi eco sensitive zone which was well intended but had elicited public opposition,” said Bharti.Minister of Environment, Forests and Climate Change, Prakash Javadekar said the Government was in the process of facilitating zero liquid discharge from identified leather tanneries along the Ganga while censors have been installed in most of the other identified polluting industrial units along the Ganga to monitor pollution.

  • Western Uttar Pradesh: Caste Arithmetic Vs Nationalism
    VERDICT 2019 Western Uttar Pradesh: Caste Arithmetic vs Nationalism SMITA GUPTA Samajwadi Party patron Mulayam Singh Yadav exchanges greetings with Bahujan Samaj Party supremo Mayawati during their joint election campaign rally in Mainpuri, on April 19, 2019. Photo: PTI In most of the 26 constituencies that went to the polls in the first three phases of the ongoing Lok Sabha elections in western Uttar Pradesh, it was a straight fight between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that currently holds all but three of the seats, and the opposition alliance of the Samajwadi Party, the Bahujan Samaj Party and the Rashtriya Lok Dal. The latter represents a formidable social combination of Yadavs, Dalits, Muslims and Jats. The sort of religious polarisation visible during the general elections of 2014 had receded, Smita Gupta, Senior Fellow, The Hindu Centre for Politics and Public Policy, New Delhi, discovered as she travelled through the region earlier this month, and bread and butter issues had surfaced—rural distress, delayed sugarcane dues, the loss of jobs and closure of small businesses following demonetisation, and the faulty implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST). The Modi wave had clearly vanished: however, BJP functionaries, while agreeing with this analysis, maintained that their party would have been out of the picture totally had Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his message of nationalism not been there. travelled through the western districts of Uttar Pradesh earlier this month, conversations, whether at district courts, mofussil tea stalls or village I chaupals1, all centred round the coming together of the Samajwadi Party (SP), the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD).
