Good News to Telangana Farmers

In this Corona virus lockdown along with migrant labourers, farmers are also severely hit. In Telangana, despite the crop coming to their hands, they could not sell for a best price and at many places, unseasonal rains have destroyed the crop leaving famers in deep anguish.

In such tiring times, Telangana government has relieved farmers by waiving off the crop loan. CM KCR has released a sum of Rs 12,000 crore which waives off all the loans below Rs 25,000. About 5.5 farmers are likely to get benefitted from this.

Apart from this, the TRS government has released approximately Rs 7,000 crore towards farm input assistance i.e, Rythu Bandhu which would help over 57 lakh farmers.

Just when the oppositions are trying to corner the TRS government on not doing adequate measures to support the farmers in this crisis times, KCR has waived off the crop loan. This move by KCR is a checkmate that would certainly keep the oppositions silent for a while.

Short and long-term effects Of styrene gas

Dr. D Raghunatha Rao, former Director, Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and Research Centre said styrene is primarily used in the production of polystyrene plastics and resins. Acute (short-term) exposure to styrene in humans results in mucous membrane and eye irritation, and gastrointestinal effects.

He said chronic (long-term) exposure to styrene in human beings leads to serious multiple complications. He said studies on its impact are inconclusive on the reproductive and developmental effects of styrene. Several studies did not report an increase in developmental effects in women who worked in the plastics industry, while an increased frequency of spontaneous abortions and decreased frequency of births were reported in another study. “Several epidemiological studies suggest there may be an association between styrene exposure and an increased risk of leukemia and lymphoma. However, the evidence is inconclusive due to confounding factors,” he pointed out.

Pawan kalyan shocking comments on YSRCP government

There has been wide criticism on YSRCP government for opening the wine shops across the state despite there is a huge surge in the Corona positive cases. The main opposition TDP did not just criticize the Jagan sarkar for opening the liquor shops but also for the hiking the prices.

Joining chorus is Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan and he called YSRCP led AP government as Corona friendly. Pawan questioned why liquor shops were opened when religious places such as temples, churches and mosques were shutdown for the past one month or so.

“YCP led AP GOVT ‘has become ‘CORONA FRIENDLY’, this Govt came into power with an electoral promise to people that ,they will implement ‘COMPLETE LIQUOR BAN’ and of course, they later changed it as ‘PHASE WISE BAN,” tweeted Pawan Kalyan.

The Jana Sena also mentioned about the suicides of a mother and daughter as their head of the family came drunk and manhandled them. “It’s painful to see to look at the suicides,due to opening of liquor shops in AP,” added Pawan in another tweet.

However, the hike of liquor prices looks inevitable for Jagan sarkar as the financial sources of the state have hit rock bottom. And despite hiking the prices, people flocked at wine shops and so we have seen long queues. But here the AP government failed to control the massive crowd at wines unlike other states.

KCR strict warningto the wine shop owners

KCR announced the opening of liquor shops in Telangana state, calling it inevitable at this moment. Speaking the statistics out, KCR said that the four states sharing the border of Telangana opened the liquor stores and this leads to smuggling and seconds sale in the state if not opened here.

So, also to avoid the agitation and protest from local breweries and licensed wine stores in Telangana state, KCR said the cabinet decided to open the stores but with conditions. The CM revealed that they decided to hike the price with an average 16 percent, while it is 11 percent on low priced liquor. The CM frankly says that the rich will be paying more and the poor will be paying less, but it will never be as high as 70 percent tax like in other states.

There are around 2200 wine shops in Telangana and except 15 stores in containment zones, all will be opened from 10 am tomorrow. KCR stressed once again that bars, pubs, and clubs remain closed.

KCR issued a strict warning in his live press meet to the wine shop owners and also costumers, to maintain physical distancing. Those who do not abide by the rules of COVID-19, KCR warned of dire consequences along with canceling the license of wine shops.

The Telangana CM asked the media to record and click pictures at wine shops and said he will watch it all tomorrow and if he finds any negligence in following the rules, the action will be taken instantly.

Well, finally, KCR also warned the costumers at wine shops to use masks and said, there will be no liquor sold for those not using masks. He also asked the public to use masks while visiting grocery stores.

TS government paid 4 crore to the Railways

Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao fumed at the Centre for adopting faulty policies, which he said, worsened the economic condition in the entire nation. Further, Rao took exception to the Centre neglecting the suggestions and pleas of the state government on steps to alleviate the economic crisis, which turned to the worse due to the ongoing lockdown imposed to check the spread of the deadly coronavirus.

KCR reminded that there was economic slowdown in the nation even before the outbreak of coronavirus. The Covid-induced lockdown made the economies of both the states and the Centre more weak, he said.

“In such a condition, the state, which gets an income of 11,000 crore every month, has earned only 1,600 crore. Now, to pay the salaries of government employees and pensioners, the TS government needs 3,000 crore every month. I explained to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the tele conference about the deficit and suggested that the Centre, which is cash-strapped, decentralise the powers so as to enable the states to sail through the hardship but they are caring a hoot to the suggestions. The Centre has rights to take up the Broad Fiscal Policy which can improve the economic conditions but it is not doing exercising the rights.”

Further, Rao also expressed anguish over the Centre not bearing the expenditure of the transportation of migrants. He said that he spoke to the Railway authorities and asked them to shift the migrants at free of cost.

Rao said that the TS government paid 4 crore to the Railways towards shifting the migrants to their native places from various parts of the state. “It is a shame on the Centre to not be able to transport migrants to their home towns bearing the entire cost. Further, all the train services have been suspended due the lockdown and it would have better if the Centre would have agreed to run at least 1,000 trains in the entire country for the workers.”

lathi charge against the protesting migrant workers

In a shocking incident, migrant workers in Andhra Pradesh have revolted demanding the state government to make necessary arrangements to return to their home towns. The migrant workers, who gathered in hundreds, have protested and even attacked the police who had tried to pacify them. With the situation getting out of control, cops had no other option but to initiate a lathi charge against the protesting migrant workers.

This incident took place in Kovvur of West Godavari where over 300 migrant workers belonging to Jharkhand, Bihar, Odisha states came onto Kovvur main road and protested. This resulted in the blocking of the transport on the road. Police have stepped in and DCP too was present to convince the migrant workers.

DCP had tried to explain to the migrant workers that the permissions from their states – Jharkhand, Bihar, Odisha – are due. But not convinced with this, the protesting labor have pelted stones and hurled bottles on police personnel. Police have finally lathi-charged the protesters to disburse them.

The other day, Hyderabad witnessed similar protest from migrant workers where they had come onto the street at Tolichowki in hundreds. With each passing day, the governments are finding it difficult to control the migrant workers. While the state governments are yet to clear permissions for the return of their migrant workers from other states, the situation looks difficult. However, officials are confident that they would resolve this soon.

Collect train fares from migrants at this hour is “disturbing” :Sonia Gandhi

Congress president Sonia Gandhi announced that the Pradesh Congress Committees (PCCs) of the respective states would pay for the rail travel of the migrant workers.She said the cost of rail travel of every needy worker and migrant labour would be paid by the PCCs, Sonia said in a statement on Monday. She found fault with the decision of the Central government and the Rail Ministry for deciding to charge fares from the migrants. She said the government’s decision to collect train fares from migrants at this hour is “disturbing”.

“Our workers and labourers form the backbone of our economy. Their hard work and sacrifice are the foundation of our nation,” Sonia said. She further said, “The Indian National Congress has, therefore, taken a decision that every Pradesh Congress Committee shall bear the cost for the rail travel of every needy worker and migrant labourer and shall take necessary steps in this regard.

This will be the Indian National Congress’ humble contribution in service of our compatriots and to stand shoulder to shoulder in solidarity with them.” Sonia attacked Narendra Modi-led Union Government. She said, “But what is the responsibility of our Government? Even today, lakhs of workers and migrant labourers are languishing in different parts of the country and wish to return to their homes and families but there is neither adequate money nor provision for free transport. What is particularly disturbing is that the Central Government and the Rail Ministry are charging them for train tickets in this hour of crisis.”

KTR advised promoting mega industrial parks

KTR underlines the improvement of export competitiveness in priority sectors like Pharma, Aerospace, Textiles, Leather, IT, and Food procession with acting scouting of markets and offers a better deal than what competing nations offer. He further bounced the idea of soft loans to procure quality machinery, International training of staff, offer attractive incentives on exports, and also bailout for SMEs as they are worst affected.

KTR advised promoting mega industrial parks like Hyderabad Pharma City and Kakatiya Mega Textile Park as National projects to scale them up to compete for manufacturing opportunities. Constituting an Empowered Strategy Group to identify and follow up on investment opportunities, is also one of the persuasive ideas.

Needless to say that out of six pharma companies in India that are in the race to make a vaccine for COVID-19, three are headquartered at Hyderabad. There are five young entrepreneurs from Hyderabad in the recent list of most reputed Forbes 30 under 30 Asia.

While these are the ideas and proposals from the Telangana’s dynamic leader who is progressing miles ahead, the leaders in the neighboring state are stagnating the progress and development as they are busy slinging mud against each other with discrepancies in coronavirus relief programs, elections, and English medium controversies.
