  • Its Time for Yatras
    Its time for yatras 12 April 2004 | News Image not found or type unknown Its time for yatras The political yatras for the ensuing elections in India commenced with Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani's 'Bharat Uday yatra'. Besides we have other yatras making waves in different parts of India. But there are some yatras, which will have some significance to the biotechnology industry. The mercury is rising. The fever is on. With elections barely after a month every political party is doing its bit to woo the voters. The political leaders are campaigning the length and breadth of the country. But there are a few leaders who are related to biotechnology/life sciences one or the other way and are making inroads through their 'yatras' to get the attention of the voters and return back to power. Narendra Modi, the chief minister of Gujarat, Ram Naik, union minister for petroleum and natural gas in the west and SM Krishna, the chief minister of Karnataka in south are to name a few. Yatras with ambition In the western part of India, Narendra Modi, the chief minister of Gujarat who is inviting the industry people to invest in Gujarat but is yet to announce the biotechnology policy for the state made a brief 'Narmada Poojan yatra' after the state government received the green signal from the Narmada Control Authority (NCA) to raise the Sardar Sarovar dam height to 110m. Subsequently he faced the wrath of the Election Commission, his yatra got stuck and got cancelled midway. To make a biotechnology related yatra the state has to first announce a biotech policy to entice the decision makers of the biotech and biopharma industry.
